Hooking with -LE words

Endings like -LE let you tack a word onto a tile already on the board, often turning a small play into a big one. Look for the high-value entries above to maximise points.

A quick statistical tour

Inside this list: 3087 words spanning 3–15 letters. The biggest cluster sits at 8 letters (558 words), 94 entries are Wordle-sized at five letters, and 393 run to seven — bingo length if you can empty the rack. For points, the ceiling is BENZIMIDAZOLE, worth 36.

For quick reference, the top of the score table reads: BENZIMIDAZOLE (36), HYDROLYZABLE (33), HYPEREXCITABLE (33), ZIZZLE (33), SCHNOZZLE (32). ANTIFASHIONABLE (15 letters) stretches furthest, while the list-wide average score sits near 14 points. If you are fishing for these words, keep L (3087 appearances), E (3087) and A (2050) on your rack.

Start with these three

Playing ALE across a double-word square turns its base 3 points into 6 — solid value for 3 tiles.
OLE — 3 letters for 3 points; every tile in it is a common draw, so it shows up rack after rack.
ISLE earns 4 points from just 4 tiles — and it is a word few opponents will bother to challenge.

Once those stick, file away the next tier too: ORLE (4), RALE (4), RILE (4), ROLE (4), RULE (4).

-LE as a board weapon

When the board tightens up late in a Scrabble game, -LE words keep you scoring: they attach to existing letters instead of needing seven clean tiles. Crossword solvers use the same trick in reverse — if the grid gives you the last letters, this list is the candidate pool. Check the length filter in the Word Finder to match your open squares exactly.
