E is the most common letter in English, appearing in over 11% of all letters. Almost every word contains at least one E. Memorizing E-heavy words like EPEE (scored with three E tiles), EMCEE, and LEVEE helps you unload multiple E tiles at once.
When you hold too many E tiles, play EPEE (8 pts with three Es), EMCEE, GELEE, or LEVEE to unload E tiles. AZURE (14 pts), SEIZE (13 pts), and FROZE (17 pts) combine E with rare letters for high scores.
Our dictionary contains 187,935 words with the letter E somewhere inside them, drawn from a database of 270,000+ real English words valid in Scrabble, Wordle, and crossword puzzles.
