The Official Scrabble Dictionary

As you play Scrabble more often, you’ll probably find yourself playing against people who gleefully plop down words you’ve never heard of, such as “qoph.” When this happens, you may want to challenge your opponent and risk losing a turn. But is “qoph” really a playable word? The only way to find out is to consult the official Scrabble dictionary, which is, according to Hasbro’s Scrabble website, Merriam-Webster’s Official Scrabble® Players Dictionary, Fourth Edition (OSPD4). If you’re playing Scrabble without a paper version of the dictionary by your side, you can challenge and check words online. Hasbro offers both a word checker and a word builder on its site (though of course the word builder can only be used when not playing competitively).
