Hooking with -NE words

Endings like -NE 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.

This list by the numbers

The shape of this list: 1507 entries between 3 and 15 letters long, peaking at 8 letters with 308 words. Five-letter picks number 61 and seven-letter picks 273. Nothing here outscores OXYPHENBUTAZONE — 41 points from 15 tiles on plain squares.

For quick reference, the top of the score table reads: OXYPHENBUTAZONE (41), BENZODIAZEPINE (37), CYCLOHEXYLAMINE (37), HYDROXYZINE (37), HEXACHLOROPHENE (35). At 15 letters, CYANOCOBALAMINE is the longest word on the list; a typical entry scores around 13. If you are fishing for these words, keep N (1507 appearances), E (1507) and I (1008) on your rack.

Three easy picks from this list

Playing ANE across a double-word square turns its base 3 points into 6 — solid value for 3 tiles.
ONE earns 3 points from just 3 tiles — and it is a word few opponents will bother to challenge.
When the rack looks hopeless, ERNE (4 letters, 4 points) is the kind of quiet play that keeps a game moving.

Round out your set with LANE (4), LINE (4), LONE (4), LUNE (4), NENE (4) — all built from common tiles.

-NE as a board weapon

Endings are Scrabble's cheapest points. A word finishing in -NE can often be built backwards from a tile already on the board, so you pay for fewer letters than you score. Scan the high scorers above, then look for a spot where the final -NE lands on a premium square — the multiplier applies to your whole word, not just the hook.
