Disclaimer

Last updated: 2 September 2026

1. General Information

The information, word results, scores, definitions and other content available on ScrabbleWordFinder.uk are provided for general informational, recreational and word-game reference purposes.

We aim to keep the website useful and accurate, but we cannot guarantee that every result, definition, score, word list or other piece of information will always be complete, current or error-free.

You should use the website as a helpful word-game resource rather than as the sole authority for official tournament decisions or disputes.

2. Scrabble Word Validity

ScrabbleWordFinder.uk may use different word datasets, including SOWPODS, TWL and ENABLE, depending on the tool and dictionary selected.

Different word lists may contain different words.

As a result:

  • a word accepted in one dataset may not appear in another;
  • UK/international and North American Scrabble word lists may differ;
  • word lists may change between editions or versions; and
  • a word returned by a general English dataset does not automatically mean that it is valid in Scrabble.

Users should always check which dictionary or word list is selected.

For official tournaments, competitions or disputed plays, please refer to the word list and rules specified by the relevant organiser or authorised game provider.

3. Scrabble Scores

Scores displayed by ScrabbleWordFinder.uk are intended to help users compare words using the applicable letter values implemented by our tools.

A displayed score may not represent the exact score earned during an actual game because real gameplay may involve:

  • double-letter squares;
  • triple-letter squares;
  • double-word squares;
  • triple-word squares;
  • existing tiles on the board;
  • blank tiles; and
  • bonuses for using all seven rack tiles.

Users should therefore treat standalone word scores as reference values rather than guaranteed in-game scores.

4. Definitions and WordNet

Some definitions, parts of speech and lexical information displayed by ScrabbleWordFinder.uk may be derived from Princeton WordNet.

WordNet is used to provide lexical information and is separate from the word lists used to determine gameplay validity.

A word having a definition in WordNet does not mean that it is automatically valid in Scrabble.

Similarly, a valid Scrabble word may not necessarily have a definition available through WordNet.

5. No Guarantee of Accuracy

We take reasonable steps to improve the accuracy and reliability of ScrabbleWordFinder.uk.

However, because the website relies on software, datasets and third-party lexical information, errors may occasionally occur.

Examples may include:

  • missing words;
  • unexpected dictionary results;
  • inaccurate or incomplete definitions;
  • incorrect scoring;
  • outdated word-list data;
  • software errors; or
  • temporary technical problems.

If you notice an issue, please contact us through our Contact Us page and include as much information as possible about the result you received.

6. Educational and Recreational Use

ScrabbleWordFinder.uk is intended primarily as a word-game, educational and recreational resource.

Nothing on this website should be treated as professional:

  • legal advice;
  • financial advice;
  • medical advice;
  • linguistic certification; or
  • other regulated professional advice.

Definitions and language information are provided for general reference only.

7. Third-Party Websites

ScrabbleWordFinder.uk may contain links to websites operated by third parties.

We do not control those websites and do not guarantee their:

  • accuracy;
  • availability;
  • security;
  • products;
  • services;
  • content; or
  • privacy practices.

Visiting an external website is at your own discretion and is subject to that website’s own policies and terms.

8. Advertising

ScrabbleWordFinder.uk may display third-party advertising, including advertising supplied through Google AdSense.

The presence of an advertisement does not necessarily mean that ScrabbleWordFinder.uk:

  • endorses the advertiser;
  • recommends the advertised product or service; or
  • has independently verified claims made in the advertisement.

Any transaction or interaction with an advertiser is between the visitor and the relevant third party.

9. Website Availability

We aim to keep ScrabbleWordFinder.uk available and functioning correctly.

However, we cannot guarantee uninterrupted access.

The website or individual tools may occasionally become unavailable because of:

  • maintenance;
  • updates;
  • hosting issues;
  • technical faults;
  • security measures;
  • network failures; or
  • circumstances outside our reasonable control.

10. Limitation of Responsibility

ScrabbleWordFinder.uk is provided as a free word-game and reference resource.

While we take reasonable care in operating the website, users remain responsible for how they use the information and results provided.

We are not responsible for losses resulting solely from reasonable reliance on:

  • differences between word lists;
  • an incorrect or incomplete word result;
  • a standalone score differing from an actual board score;
  • incomplete lexical information; or
  • temporary website unavailability,

where the issue is outside our reasonable control or where we are not at fault.

Nothing in this Disclaimer is intended to exclude or restrict responsibility where doing so would be unlawful.

That last sentence should remain. UK consumer guidance specifically warns against blanket disclaimers that try to remove responsibility where the business is actually at fault.
