W is worth 4 points, and that shows: the average word on this list scores 13.7, a high figure for a seven-letter group. The letter also behaves predictably. A follows it in 293 words, and S closes 308, so a few well-chosen guesses go a long way.

Seven-letter W words in brief

990 words start with W, and 98 of them are common English.
766 carry a definition, and the mean score is 13.7.
The second letter is A for 293 words, I for 184, H for 156 and E for 144.
S ends 308 words, D ends 130 and R ends 105.
WAZZOCK scores 34, WHIZZED 32 and WHIZZES 31.

What does the WH digraph add?

A distinct family: 156 words open WH-, roughly 16 percent of the list. WHI- accounts for 62 of them and WHE- for 39, which is 101 between them. WHETHER is the best-known WHE- word, and WHIZZED is the standout WHI- one.

The remaining 55 split as WHA- 25, WHO- 25, WHU- 3 and WHY- 2. Because WH- is a digraph, the H cannot be dropped, so it is a short pattern to remember: two fixed tiles and five open ones.

Which other stems repeat?

WAR- supplies 59 words, WIN- supplies 55, WOO- supplies 50 and WOR- supplies 41. WARNING, WINNING, WINDOWS and WORKING are the familiar ones. Together with WHI- and WHE-, those six stems carry 306 words.

On the right edge, 94 words close with -ING and 63 with -ERS. Adding -IER at 36 and -IES at 30 covers 223 of the 990 with four suffixes.

Between the openers and the endings, you can name the first three and the last three letters of most W words in under a minute.

Why is the average score so high?

The W itself is worth 4, and a cluster of double-Z words lifts the top end. WAZZOCK reaches 34, whizzed 32, whizzes and whizzer 31, wuzzled 29 and wizzens 28. Even a plain word like WEEKEND starts four points ahead of most letters.

Add the 50-point bingo bonus and the typical W word is worth about 64, since 13.7 plus 50 is 63.7.

Practical advice: with a W and a Z on the rack, check WH- and WI- first. Those two openers hold four of the six top scorers.
