The Dictionary

Back to overview

Only words are permitted hat are listed in our dictionary. The english one is based on the current edition of the SOWPODS. Here are a few rules that are derived from the official Scrabble tournament rules:

Allowed:

  • Verbs in all inflected forms
  • Adjectives in all the declensions
  • Nouns in all declensions

Not allowed:

  • Any proper names (which involves first and last name, product names, cities, rivers, countries, etc.)
  • Abbreviations
  • Prefixes and suffixes

Sometimes this results in unusual inflections – go and check under collinslanguage.com, if you are uncertain about the admissibility of the word.

Otherwise, try a word: If it is accepted, perfect. But then remember to look what it is supposed to be – be a pirate and learn!
