High Plays
Predefined Lists includes several special lists useful for beginning, or fun, word study. Studying these words will help you manage your plays when you have a challenging rack or opportunities for a big score.
High Fives
High Fives have two definitions depending on who you talk to. Some refer to high fives as five letter words with at least one high value tile (QXJV). This list takes the alternate view that high fives are high value words with a F, H, K, V, W, or Y at the beginning or ending of a word and that do not include Q, X, J, or V. QXJV words can be studied separately. This set of words is important because bonus points are often separated by five tiles in Scrabble™. By playing the high value tile on the 3L space, and reaching the 3W space, players can make the most of their tiles.
High Fours
High Fours follow the same guideline as High Fives except that the words are only 4 letters long. This set of words is important to Words with Friends™ players because that board has many opportunities to play on bonus points are often separated by four tiles. By playing the high value tile on the 3L space, and reaching the 3W space, players can make the most of their tiles.
