Since unscrambling 7 letters to make a word can be a challenging task, experienced players use tricks to search for 7-letter words by unscrambling just 4, 5 or 6 of their letters. Chief among these tricks is to look for common word endings and prefixes on your rack. For instance, if you have an I, an N and a G, you can move them to the end of your rack to make the -ING suffix, and look at the remaining 4 letters to see if you can make a 4-letter verb. Some other common endings to look for are -S, -ES, -ED, -ER, -LY, -ING, -ERS, -IER, -EST and -IES. Some common prefixes are RE-, UN-, DE- and OUT-.
