SCRABBLE WORD KNOWLEDGE FOR BEGINNERS

Scrabble is a game that combines your word knowledge with your strategic skills. If you wish to become a successful Scrabble player, adding to your word knowledge is the most important part of the training process. You must train your mind to learn new word tips on a daily basis with the help of Scrabble word finder and Scrabble help websites available online.

 

MORE WORDS, MORE POINTS

It is quite self-explanatory that the player who knows more words from the official Scrabble dictionary, the more likely they will have a solution to the problem at hand. It is a tedious but an important job to constantly add new words to your daily verbiage.

Although it is seemingly impossible to learn all the thousands of words present in the Scrabble "bible", one can easily pick out certain words when they appear as jumbled letters on their rack. For example, if you find the words NECEIIA on your rack, the easiest alternative would be to opt for ICE, ACE or NICE. But these will leave your rack in bits and pieces with too many vowels. The idea is to maximize your output and upon further exploration words like NIECE and ACINI might work out better.

The aim is to try and move more tiles from your rack efficiently while keeping thee spaces open for bonus scores and hot spots on the board.

 

FINDING ANAGRAMS

 

 

Another major part of being highly efficient at your Scrabble game play is the unique ability to unravel words from the jumbled rack in front of you. It is also important not to fixate on the first word you find and explore further options. You might end up with a better alternative word or an anagram of the word might help you score more points and ultimately win the game. The player who effectively utilizes all the words available on his rack to form a new word is entitled to a 50-point bonus. If you are lucky enough, you might even be labeled a Scrabble cheat by the losing opponent.
