goddamn G₂O₁D₂D₂A₁M₃N₁

GODDAMN intensifies a statement or expresses anger, surprise, excitement, or frustration. The definition also includes “damned by God,” though everyday use is usually emphatic. Its seven letters make a 12-point Scrabble word, but the unusual mix has no anagrams. GODDAMS is its only one-letter neighbour, so changing just one tile gives you few alternatives.

GODDAMN at a glance

• GODDAMN has seven letters and a base Scrabble score of 12 points.
• The tiles score G2, O1, D2 twice, A1, M3, and N1.
• No other word in the anagram results uses all seven letters.
• GODDAMS is the sole one-letter neighbour.
• DAMN and BEDAMN are the two listed rhymes.

What does GODDAMN mean?

GODDAMN is a stronger form of “damn.” As an intensifier, it adds force to a noun or statement: “that goddamn noise” shows irritation, while “a goddamn miracle” can show excitement or surprise. The tone depends on context, but the word is generally informal and profane.

The definition also gives a literal religious sense, “damned by God.” In ordinary speech, though, GODDAMN more often works as an exclamation or intensifier than as a literal description. That distinction matters when you are checking meaning rather than simply counting letters.

GODDAMN Scrabble score, rhymes, and neighbours

GODDAMN scores 12 points before any board bonuses. Its value comes from G2, two D tiles worth 2 each, and M3; O, A, and N each add 1. The two D tiles are easy to overlook when you total the rack, but both count toward the printed score.

GODDAMS changes only the final letter, making it the sole one-letter neighbour. DAMN and BEDAMN share the ending sound, but neither is an anagram. The practical limitation is clear: despite its seven letters, GODDAMN offers no rearranged-word option. Check the word list selected for your game before playing a profane term.
