Playing words that start with BRO

Leading with BRO lets you hook onto open columns and reach premium squares. Scan the high-scoring entries above first — they offer the best return when you have the tiles.

This list by the numbers

A few numbers before you scroll: the 312 words here run from 3 to 15 letters, with 8-letter words the largest group (67 entries). Wordle players have 16 five-letter options, and there are 43 seven-letter candidates for a Scrabble bingo. The single best scorer is BRONCHOSCOPIC at 26 points before multipliers.

For quick reference, the top of the score table reads: BRONCHOSCOPIC (26), BRONCHOSCOPISTS (26), BRONCHOSCOPY (26), BRONCHOSCOPIES (25), BRONCHOSCOPIST (25). The longest entry is BRONCHODILATORS at 15 letters, and the average word here is worth about 15 points. If you are fishing for these words, keep R (312 appearances), B (312) and O (312) on your rack.

Three easy picks from this list

When the rack looks hopeless, BROILS (6 letters, 8 points) is the kind of quiet play that keeps a game moving.
BROSES — 6 letters for 8 points; every tile in it is a common draw, so it shows up rack after rack.
BROIL earns 7 points from just 5 tiles — and it is a word few opponents will bother to challenge.

Once those stick, file away the next tier too: BROOS (7), BROSE (7), BROO (6), BROS (6), BROADS (9).

Learning words through BRO
