Why ODE words matter
Words containing ODE are handy for Scrabble, Words with Friends and word puzzles — filter the list above by length to find the play you need.
This list by the numbers
A few numbers before you scroll: the 527 words here run from 3 to 15 letters, with 8-letter words the largest group (97 entries). Wordle players have 27 five-letter options, and there are 65 seven-letter candidates for a Scrabble bingo. The single best scorer is HYPODERMICALLY at 30 points before multipliers.
Chasing points? The best five entries here are HYPODERMICALLY (30), CYCLODEXTRINS (28), CYCLODEXTRIN (27), CHORDAMESODERMS (26), HYPERMODERNISTS (26). The longest entry is BIODEGRADATIONS at 15 letters, and the average word here is worth about 14 points. The most useful tiles to hold for this list are O, D and E, which appear in 527, 527 and 527 of the words respectively.
Three easy picks from this list
- ANODES is easy to keep in memory: 6 letters, 7 points, and no awkward tiles to hunt for.
- ELODEA earns 7 points from just 6 tiles — and it is a word few opponents will bother to challenge.
- Playing ERODES across a double-word square turns its base 7 points into 14 — solid value for 6 tiles.
Five more everyday options from the same list: LODENS (7), ODEONS (7), RODENT (7), RODEOS (7), SARODE (7).
Learning words through ODE
If you are studying English, ODE is a high-leverage chunk: instead of memorising each word cold, anchor the ODE pattern and let the surrounding letters vary. Word-game players get a parallel benefit — when a crossword grid or a Wordle guess reveals the ODE sequence, this page is the complete candidate pool, already sorted by Scrabble value.
