What makes CRIMP interesting

  • Letter make-up: 1 vowel (I) and 4 consonants (C, R, M, P) — a vowel ratio of 20%. Consonant-heavy racks like this one are hard to play; look for short vowel-light words first.
  • Highest-value tile: C at 3 Scrabble points (4 in Words With Friends). Build around it when a premium square is available.
  • Score ranking: at 11 points, CRIMP scores higher than 72% of all 5-letter words in our dictionary.
  • Dictionary status: valid in TWL. See what each dictionary covers →
  • Wordle: CRIMP is five letters, so it is a structurally valid guess. Wordle would accept it.
  • Alphabetical signature: cimpr — every word sharing this signature is an anagram of CRIMP.

About Unscrambling CRIMP

The letters CRIMP (c, r, i, m, p) can be rearranged into 13 different words, the longest of which are 5-letter words. Every one of those words is listed in full above — nothing is hidden behind a click or a script.

Definition: an unscramble is the act of rearranging a jumbled set of letters back into valid dictionary words. Unlike a simple anagram (which must use every letter exactly once), unscrambling also finds every shorter sub-word that can be built from a subset of those letters.

CRIMP is a valid word in the TWL dictionary, worth 11 points in Scrabble and 14 points in Words With Friends before board multipliers.

How We Calculated These Words

Every candidate above was looked up by its alphabetical signature— the letters of the word sorted into A–Z order. Two words share a signature if and only if they contain the same letters, which is what makes anagram and sub-anagram lookups instant instead of O(n!). We then subtract each candidate's per-letter counts from your input's counts, drawing on the wildcard pool for any deficit, so only words you actually have the tiles to spell are returned.
