Anagram solver

Enter a set of letters and see every word that rearranges them perfectly. Each result spends all of your letters, once each, so it comes back exactly as long as what you typed.

Every letter used once 2 to 15 letters Same length out

Letters A to Z only. Spaces and punctuation are ignored.

Reading the results

Every letter has to be spent

An anagram is a redistribution, not a selection. If the answer would drop even one of your letters, this page will not show it to you.

Repeated letters count separately

Two Ss in your input means two Ss in every result. That single rule is why long sets so often come back empty.

Empty is a real answer

Plenty of letter sets rearrange into nothing at all. When that happens the shorter words panel is where the interesting finds live.

Order of results

Rarer letters float to the top, since results are ranked by Scrabble tile value before falling back to alphabetical order.

About this anagram solver

An anagram is a one-to-one trade of positions. Your letters go in, the same letters come out standing somewhere else. That constraint makes the search cheap: only words of your exact length can possibly qualify, so this page compares your letter tally against a single slice of the dictionary and keeps the words whose tally matches yours down to the last duplicate.

The whole thing runs in your browser against our 277,000-word list. Nothing you type is sent anywhere, and the dictionary slice for a given length is fetched once and then reused for the rest of your visit.

Pick the tool that matches your question. Want partial words and every leftover combination? Use the word unscrambler. Chasing one hidden answer in a newspaper-style puzzle? The word scramble solver puts a single best answer up front. Prefer to browse instead of solve? Try 6-letter words or words with certain letters.

Anagram questions

What counts as an anagram on this page?

A rearrangement that spends every letter you typed, once each, with nothing added and nothing left over. LISTEN and SILENT are anagrams. LISTEN and LENS are not, because LENS drops two letters. Results always come back at the same length as your input.

Why did my letters return nothing?

Most letter sets have no perfect rearrangement, and that is normal rather than a fault. Confirm you typed the letters correctly, count your duplicates, then open the shorter words panel below the empty result. Something almost always turns up one or two letters down.

Can I run a name or a phrase through it?

Yes, once you strip it down. Remove spaces, apostrophes, and hyphens so only A to Z remains, then paste that string. Keep in mind the dictionary holds common vocabulary rather than surnames or place names, so a personal name will often come back empty even when a clever rearrangement exists.

Does it produce two-word anagrams?

Not directly. Each result is a single dictionary word. To build a two-word anagram by hand, open the shorter words panel, pick a word you like, subtract its letters from your original set, and search the remainder as a fresh query.

How is this different from the word unscrambler?

Strictness. The unscrambler returns anything your letters can partly build, so a 7-letter rack yields hundreds of results from 2 letters upward. This page answers a narrower question and gives you the perfect rearrangements only. Chasing one specific hidden word instead? The word scramble solver is shaped for that.
