Why DA words matter

Words containing DA are handy for Scrabble, Words with Friends and word puzzles — filter the list above by length to find the play you need.

A quick statistical tour

The shape of this list: 2669 entries between 3 and 15 letters long, peaking at 8 letters with 504 words. Five-letter picks number 84 and seven-letter picks 388. Nothing here outscores BENZIMIDAZOLES — 37 points from 14 tiles on plain squares.

For quick reference, the top of the score table reads: BENZIMIDAZOLES (37), BEDAZZLEMENTS (36), BENZIMIDAZOLE (36), BEDAZZLEMENT (35), DAZZLINGLY (33). ACCOMMODATINGLY (15 letters) stretches furthest, while the list-wide average score sits near 14 points. Letter-wise, A is the workhorse — it appears in 2669 of these words, ahead of D (2669) and E (1618).

Three easy picks from this list

ANODAL — a 6-letter, 7-point play that slots into tight board lanes where longer words won't fit.
DAISES earns 7 points from just 6 tiles — and it is a word few opponents will bother to challenge.
DALASI — 6 letters for 7 points; every tile in it is a common draw, so it shows up rack after rack.

Five more everyday options from the same list: DALLES (7), DALTON (7), DANIOS (7), DARERS (7), DARNEL (7).
