Words with the letter W

The letter W is a valuable consonant in Scrabble, worth 4 points, making it a strong tile to play when used wisely. It appears in a variety of common words and is especially useful for creating high-scoring plays when placed on double or triple letter score squares. Short words like we, wo, and aw are great for quick, tactical moves, especially in tight spaces. Since W often appears at the beginning of words, it can help you build longer, strategic words and set up future plays.

To maximize the effectiveness of the letter W, look for opportunities to form words like wave, wing, worn, or write that can take advantage of premium squares on the board. W also works well with vowels like A, E, and I, making it easier to combine with other tiles. Knowing short W words and common prefixes such as win- or war- will give you an edge in both scoring and rack management. With careful placement, the letter W can be a powerful asset that helps you score big and control the board.
