Playing words that start with ME

Leading with ME lets you hook onto open columns and reach premium squares. Scan the high-scoring entries above first — they offer the best return when you have the tiles.

What the numbers say

The shape of this list: 1577 entries between 2 and 15 letters long, peaking at 9 letters with 242 words. Five-letter picks number 59 and seven-letter picks 170. Nothing here outscores METHOXYCHLORS — 33 points from 13 tiles on plain squares.

The five biggest scorers on the page: METHOXYCHLORS (33), METHOXYFLURANES (33), METHYLXANTHINES (33), MERCHANDIZINGS (32), METHOXYCHLOR (32). At 15 letters, MEANINGLESSNESS is the longest word on the list; a typical entry scores around 15. If you are fishing for these words, keep E (1577 appearances), M (1577) and A (959) on your rack.

Three easy picks from this list

MEALIE earns 8 points from just 6 tiles — and it is a word few opponents will bother to challenge.
When the rack looks hopeless, MEANER (6 letters, 8 points) is the kind of quiet play that keeps a game moving.
MEANIE — 6 letters for 8 points; every tile in it is a common draw, so it shows up rack after rack.

Once those stick, file away the next tier too: MEASLE (8), MEATAL (8), MEATUS (8), MEETER (8), MEINIE (8).

ME as a vocabulary shortcut

Groups like this one reward a different kind of practice: pick five words of different lengths from the list above, write each in a sentence, and the ME pattern moves into long-term memory. It is also a quiet Scrabble edge — racks that spell ME plus common tiles come up constantly, and prepared players cash them in while others shuffle letters.
