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.
