Hooking with -TY words

Endings like -TY 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: 1763 words spanning 3–15 letters. The biggest cluster sits at 11 letters (221 words), 99 entries are Wordle-sized at five letters, and 109 run to seven — bingo length if you can empty the rack. For points, the ceiling is QUIZZICALITY, worth 44.

The five biggest scorers on the page: QUIZZICALITY (44), HYPNOTIZABILITY (37), SQUEEZABILITY (36), PSYCHOSEXUALITY (35), EXCHANGEABILITY (33). AGGLUTINABILITY (15 letters) stretches furthest, while the list-wide average score sits near 18 points. The most useful tiles to hold for this list are Y, T and I, which appear in 1763, 1763 and 1539 of the words respectively.

Three words worth learning first

When the rack looks hopeless, ENTITY (6 letters, 9 points) is the kind of quiet play that keeps a game moving.
LEALTY is easy to keep in memory: 6 letters, 9 points, and no awkward tiles to hunt for.
Playing LENITY across a double-word square turns its base 9 points into 18 — solid value for 6 tiles.

Five more everyday options from the same list: NINETY (9), RARITY (9), REALTY (9), SANITY (9), SLANTY (9).

-TY as a board weapon

A reliable habit: every time you learn a new -TY word, note whether it also takes a front extension. Words that extend at both ends are the ones that turn a 12-point play into a 40-point one, because you can bridge two premium squares. The top of this list — sorted by score — is where those double-duty words hide.
