1. Learn to use two- and three-letter words effectively. The simplest words
are the foundation of a good Scrabble score.
2. Remember to use prefixes and suffixes. Adding -ING, -ED, or -ER can
help players form new words in a pinch and squeeze some more points out
of them. It's a good idea to place these letters at the right side of the
Scrabble rack as a tool to help you visualize the possibilities.
3. Take full advantage of the letter S and blank tiles. The game only contains
four S tiles, so they must be used carefully:
4. Don't forget about bingos. A bingo in Scrabble means that all seven
letters on the rack were used in one turn. This earns a whopping 50-point
bonus that can make the difference between winning and losing a game.
5. Use hooks when you need to. A hook is a single-letter play that can create
a new word or make an existing word longer. Hook letters are often Y, E,
R, or D.
6. Stockpile the most common and useful letters. Aim to have some
combination of A, E, I, L, N, R, S, and T on your rack, as they're very
common letters and offer many possibilities.
7. Memorize words with a Q but no U. Q is the most valuable letter in
Scrabble, but it's often followed by the letter U, and there are only four
U tiles in the game. Learn to rack up points from the letter Q without
depending on having a U by memorizing options like "quadi," "qaid," and
"faqir."
8. Be on the lookout for Scrabble “bingos.” Using all the letters on your deck
in one turn will make your opponents groan. As Scrabble pros are familiar
with, there's no greater feeling in the game than being able to use your
entire deck for a word in a single turn. Commonly known as a Scrabble
"bingo," you can add 50 points on top of what the word would normally
score.
9. Use Q sooner rather than later. Q is a high value letter, but it's not so
easy to use. As Scrabble pros know, Q is perhaps the toughest letter to
use during a game because there aren't many words that use the letter.
Your best bet when getting a Q on your letters deck is to use it the first
opportunity you can.
10. And use parallels wisely. Parallels are a good way to get rid of
useless vowels. If you want to get rid of your vowels but still rack up
points, parallels are a great idea. You play them parallel to another word
already on the board, and get points for every new word you create.
