What makes SLUFF interesting

  • Letter make-up: 1 vowel (U) and 4 consonants (S, L, F, F) — a vowel ratio of 20%. Consonant-heavy racks like this one are hard to play; look for short vowel-light words first.
  • Rare letters: F — uncommon in English, which is why the derived list is shorter than a rack of the same length made of common letters.
  • Highest-value tile: F at 4 Scrabble points (4 in Words With Friends). Build around it when a premium square is available.
  • Score ranking: at 11 points, SLUFF scores higher than 72% of all 5-letter words in our dictionary.
  • Dictionary status: valid in TWL. See what each dictionary covers →
  • Wordle: SLUFF is five letters, so it is a structurally valid guess. Wordle would accept it.

How We Calculated These Words

Every candidate above was looked up by its alphabetical signature— the letters of the word sorted into A–Z order. Two words share a signature if and only if they contain the same letters, which is what makes anagram and sub-anagram lookups instant instead of O(n!). We then subtract each candidate's per-letter counts from your input's counts, drawing on the wildcard pool for any deficit, so only words you actually have the tiles to spell are returned.
