How to play Spelling Bee
Make words of four or more letters from seven letters, always including the center letter. Letters can be reused.
Four-letter words score one point; longer words score one point per letter. A pangram uses all seven letters and earns a bonus.
Tips to solve Spelling Bee faster
- Hunt the pangram first: common endings like -ING, -TION and -ED often complete it.
- Work through the list by first letter and length; the counts below show how many words start with each letter.
- Try adding -ED, -ER and -S to words you already have. They often count as separate words.
