To find words containing specific letters, simply type the letters you know must be in the word into the search bar. For example, searching for "zz" will return words like "Puzzle", "Dazzle", and "Fuzzy". You can also combine this with length filters to narrow down the results further.
A digraph is a pair of letters that together represent a single sound (phoneme). Common English digraphs include "sh" (as in "ship"), "ch" (as in "chip"), "th" (as in "think"), and "ph" (as in "phone"). Finding words containing these digraphs is highly useful for spelling and phonics practice.
In English, the letter 'Q' is almost always followed by a 'U'. In Scrabble, if you draw a 'Q' but there are no 'U' tiles available, you might get stuck with a high-value tile you can't play. Memorizing words that contain a 'Q' but no 'U'-like "Qabala", "Qat", "Sheqel", or "Tranq"-can save your game and score massive points.
