Why PA words matter

Words containing PA are handy for Scrabble, Words with Friends and word puzzles — filter the list above by length to find the play you need.

A quick statistical tour

A few numbers before you scroll: the 4703 words here run from 2 to 15 letters, with 8-letter words the largest group (767 entries). Wordle players have 178 five-letter options, and there are 573 seven-letter candidates for a Scrabble bingo. The single best scorer is PAZAZZES at 37 points before multipliers.

The five biggest scorers on the page: PAZAZZES (37), PAZAZZ (35), HYDROXYAPATITES (34), HYDROXYLAPATITE (34), LYMPHADENOPATHY (34). The longest entry is ANTHROPOPATHISM at 15 letters, and the average word here is worth about 15 points. If you are fishing for these words, keep A (4703 appearances), P (4703) and E (2870) on your rack.

Three words worth learning first

INSPAN — a 6-letter, 8-point play that slots into tight board lanes where longer words won't fit.
LIPASE — 6 letters for 8 points; every tile in it is a common draw, so it shows up rack after rack.
Playing NONPAR across a double-word square turns its base 8 points into 16 — solid value for 6 tiles.

Five more everyday options from the same list: NOPALS (8), PAEANS (8), PAELLA (8), PAEONS (8), PAESAN (8).

One chunk, many words: PA

If you are studying English, PA is a high-leverage chunk: instead of memorising each word cold, anchor the PA pattern and let the surrounding letters vary. Word-game players get a parallel benefit — when a crossword grid or a Wordle guess reveals the PA sequence, this page is the complete candidate pool, already sorted by Scrabble value.
