Fill In the Letters You Know
When you have a few letters of a crossword answer but cannot think of the word, this crossword helper finds every matching word. Choose the word length (2 to 15 letters), type the letters you know into their boxes and leave the unknown boxes blank. It lists every word that fits, with the most common words first, and you can copy the list with one click.
How Pattern Matching Works
The helper keeps only the words that are exactly the right length and have your known letters in the exact positions you entered. Blank boxes can be any letter.
Example: for a 5-letter answer with the pattern _ O _ _ E, the helper suggests words such as "force," "horse," "house" and "voice." Compare the matches with your clue to pick the right one.
Crossword Solving Tips
- Fill in the answers you are sure of first. Crossing words give you letters for harder clues.
- Look at the clue's tense and number. A plural clue usually has a plural answer, often ending in S.
- A question mark at the end of a clue often signals a pun or wordplay.
- Abbreviations in a clue usually mean the answer is abbreviated too.
