About Unscrambling LOXES

The letters LOXES (l, o, x, e, s) can be rearranged into 28 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.

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.
