How Scrabble Scoring Works

Every letter in Scrabble has a fixed base point value. Common letters like E, A, I, O, N, R, S, T are worth just 1 point, while rare letters like Q and Z are worth 10 points each. The total score of a word is the sum of all its letter values (before any board multipliers).

Words with Friends uses a slightly different point system — for example, L is worth 2 points instead of 1, and H is worth 3 instead of 4. This calculator shows both side-by-side so you can compare.

Tips for Higher Scores

  • Use high-value letters on Double/Triple Letter squares for maximum impact
  • Play words that cover Double/Triple Word squares to multiply your entire word score
  • Learn 2-letter words with Q, Z, X, and J — they score big in tight spots
  • Extend existing words on the board to claim bonus squares without using many tiles
