Check a word
One word in, one clear answer out: is it in the list this site holds, and what does it score? That's the question players actually argue about, so the answer comes first and the explanation comes second.
Words are checked against ENABLE, a public domain list. This is not the official NASPA (NWL) or Collins (CSW) tournament list. Some tournament words, QI and ZA for example, are not in ENABLE, and some ENABLE words are not tournament legal. For rated play, check the official list for your event.
