About Anagram Solver
An anagram uses every letter of a set exactly once to make a new word — LISTEN and SILENT, or TINSEL. This solver does that, and it also handles the looser question people usually actually have: what words can I make from some of these letters?
Exact mode requires all your letters. Subset mode allows shorter words, which is what you want for a rack of tiles or a puzzle where you are hunting for anything playable rather than a perfect rearrangement.
How to use it
- 1
Type your letters
Order does not matter. Use ?, _ or a space for a blank or unknown tile — a space counts as a blank anywhere in the input, including at the end.
- 2
Choose exact or subset
Exact returns only words using every letter. Subset returns everything buildable from some of them, longest first.
Frequently asked questions
- What is an anagram?
- A word formed by rearranging all the letters of another, using each letter exactly once. LISTEN, SILENT and TINSEL are anagrams of each other.
- How do I search with a blank tile?
- Type ?, _ or a plain space where the unknown letter goes. The solver treats all of these as a wildcard that can become any letter.
- What is the difference between exact and subset mode?
- Exact uses every letter you entered and returns true anagrams only. Subset allows shorter words built from part of your letters.
- Does it handle proper nouns?
- No. The dictionary contains common words only, so names and places are not included.
