Words Starting With

Words That Start With Every Letter

Explore the English language by sifting through an extensive list of words that start with a letter of your choice.

Having a rich and extensive vocabulary is the first step to be able to win at word games such as Scrabble or Words with Friends. Tools that unscramble words or letters can be very useful whenever players are stuck but rarely does any opponent allow a player to unscramble a word during a game. That is why it is important to study and learn as many words as possible before the challenge.
 
Learning words that begin with a particular letter can be a very good starting point in your study. By separating the terms according to their beginning, it becomes easier to retain and organize the new vocabulary in your mind, as well as to retrieve it from your memory when needed. 

Focus on the letters you know the least about

Set a timer for a short period of time and try to come up with as many words as you can starting with a given letter. Repeat for every letter of the alphabet.
 
This little exercise will show you which word starters are your strongest and weakest. With this insight, you will be able to better organize your study sessions and choose to focus on words starting with the letters with which you had more difficulties.

Study words starting with less common letters

If you take a quick look at the list of words starting with ‘A’ and then check out the one with words starting with ‘X’, you can see that both are very different when it comes to their size. That is because ‘A’ is a much more common letter at the beginning of words.
 
When you are studying new words to use in a game of Scrabble or Words with Friends, you will do well in focusing on terms that start with uncommon letters. Not only there are fewer to remember, but it is also more likely that these words are uncommon themselves. You may even get to bait your opponent to challenge your word.

Look for words with high value

In these lists of words starting with a given letter, you can find a little number on the right side of each term. This digit shows you how many points that word is worth in a game of Scrabble. Additionally, you can select any word and also find out its value in a game of Words with Friends.
 
Give priority to memorizing those with the highest number to boost your overall score in your next word challenge.
