■ Using Words as Patterns

When you enter a word as a pattern,

The Official Scrabble®Players Dictionary

builds a

Scrabble®list of words containing the pattern at

the beginning, middle, or end.

For example, the pattern “art”above was used to

build “artsy,”“harts,”“quarts,”and other words.

Adding Letters to the Beginning

or Ends of Words

Let’s say that your tiles are PTHANRI and part of the

board looks like this (H is at the edge of the board):

To find words ending in AH, type an asterisk (*) in your

pattern. The asterisk stands for any number of letters.

1. At the Ready message, type this:

2. Press .

3. Type your tiles.

4. Press or .

5. Press to move down the Scrabble®list.

6. When you’re done, press .

■ Using Asterisks in Patterns

You can type asterisks in the beginnings,

middles, and ends of your patterns.

When you type a pattern with no asterisks,

The Official Scrabble®Players Dictionary

treats

the pattern as if it had asterisks at its beginning

and end. For example, when you enter “art”,

the pattern works as if you entered “*art*”.

When you type a pattern with asterisks, no

other asterisks are assumed. For example, the

pattern “*ah”works as “*ah”and ah*”works as

“ah*”.

■Using Question Marks in Patterns

You can type as many question marks in your

patterns as you like. Each question mark stands

for any single letter.

When you type a question mark in a pattern, no

other question marks or asterisks are assumed.

So, in the above example, you typed question

marks at the beginning and end of the pattern to

indicate that “l??a”could occur anywhere in a

word. If you wanted to build a list of words

beginning or ending with “l??a”, you would omit

one of the asterisks.
