About the English Language

English is a West Germanic language with over 1.5 billion speakers worldwide — the most widely spoken language on Earth. It uses the 26-letter Latin alphabet and draws vocabulary from Latin, French, Old Norse, and dozens of other languages, giving it one of the richest word lists of any language. This depth makes English the ultimate word game language: rare but valid words like QOPH, XYLEM, and FJORD can score huge points.

English Scrabble dictionaries — the TWL (North America) and SOWPODS (international) — contain over 279,000 valid words, far more than most players know. A word unscrambler is the fastest way to discover valid words you never knew existed and to study high-scoring patterns before tournament play.

Word Games in English-Speaking Countries

Scrabble was invented in the USA in 1938 and is now played competitively in over 120 countries. Wordle became a global phenomenon in 2022. Words With Friends, Boggle, Bananagrams, and Codenames all have massive English-language followings. NASPA and WESPA organize annual Scrabble world championships.
