Words With Friends maintains an independent dictionary that frequently differs on inflections and modern terms.
Multiplier Strategy: Base face value is 2 points. When placing "AR" across premium board squares (Double or Triple Word Score), your turn score can rapidly jump to 4 – 6+ points, especially if high-value consonants cross existing perpendicular plays.
