hemiolas or melodias
your call as to whether you know these words and could convince your opponent that you haven't cheated...

if you're starting from the S you could also have semioval

I came up with Semolina and so did my wife.

And there aren't the right letters for Hyphenated - duh!

Brakes where are you getting these words from? there is no h or d and I'm not convinced that semioval is a word!....my nexus doesn't recognise it! 😆

Is the 2nd tile not a blank tile?

If someone played za and al against me then I'd probably just quit there and then.

By starting from the Triple Letter above the S, you will at the very least be opening up the Triple Word for your opponent. If you're really unlucky they will be able to use the Triple and Double!!
What about stalklike for 26?

This is the problem with scrabble - people memorising the stupid 2 letter word list. Not really sporting.

Upwords is a much better game as it rewards creativity with long words.

Anyway. Does anyone know of a higher scoring word than "quetzals"?

I know. 😐
Boils mine too, but them's the vagaries.

You can't help picking a few of the two letter words up, but actively memorizing them should be a capital offence.
As, of course, should be cheating at pub quizzes & online chess.

How is using two letter words cheating? Don't hate the player hate the game. 🙂

This thread however, is definitely cheating.

It's not cheating as such, but learning all the two letter words just takes the fun out of the game.

Playing Scrabble with a someone who actively competes in tournaments is almost as soul destroying as analysing poetry or ripping the wings of Hummingbirds to see how they fly.
It ruins the magic. 😀

How do you feel about Q and Z being 10 pointers when you can now use them in 2 letter words. I hate V, I can never get rid of it.
John John ,I like ivied.

I play it on the Facebook app with a mate, it helpfully lists all the 2-letter words in one of the side bars.

And that up there ^^ is not a proper Scrabble board...

I paid £5 for the proper scrabble app ,as did my friend. Even with iPads next to each other they can't find each other.
Has anyone remotely played with the official app?
