Anagram Finder & Solver

Find anagrams of any word: rearrangements using all the same letters.

Dictionary is a curated common-English set bundled with the tool, so it works offline.

Dictionary: ~10,000 common English words bundled with the tool. For competitive Scrabble use, install a TWL or SOWPODS-based tool locally.

How to use the Anagram Finder & Solver

Type letters. Exact mode finds words that use exactly those letters (length matches). Sub-anagram mode finds any word using a subset of the letters — useful when you have rack of Scrabble letters and want to know your best plays.

Finding anagrams and sub-anagrams

An anagram rearranges all the letters of a word into another real word; a sub-anagram uses any subset of the letters. Both matter for word games — Scrabble, crosswords, cryptic clues — and for brainstorming names where you want a memorable rearrangement of existing letters.

Type some letters and this finds exact anagrams (same letters, same length) or sub-anagrams (any subset), checked against a bundled dictionary of about 10,000 common English words so it works offline. To scramble letters into a random order rather than valid words, see text shuffle; to count individual letter frequencies, the letter frequency analyzer.

Common use cases

  • Scrabble and word games — find the best plays from a rack of letters.
  • Crossword solving — discover words hidden in a set of letters.
  • Cryptic clues — test anagram-based clue answers.
  • Name brainstorming — rearrange letters into a memorable name.
  • Puzzle making — generate anagram puzzles from a word list.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between exact and sub-anagrams?

Exact uses every letter once, so the result is the same length; sub-anagrams use any subset, so shorter words count too.

What dictionary does it use?

A curated set of about 10,000 common English words bundled with the tool, so it runs entirely offline.

Is it suitable for competitive Scrabble?

It uses common English, not a tournament word list (TWL or SOWPODS). For competitive play, use a tool built on those lists.

Can I limit the results?

Yes. Set a minimum word length and a maximum number of results.
