Tips to unscramble words faster

If you feel stuck, don’t peek at the answer key right away, try the following tips instead.

• Look for common letter pairs. There are letters, that often appear together, common examples are: TH, ER, ON, and AN. If you can spot these letter combinations, you can try to connect them with the remaining letters.
• Find prefixes and suffixes. Look for prefixes and suffixes and try connecting them with the rest of the letters. Common prefixes are: ANTI-, DE-, DIS-, EM-, EN-, IM-, IN, IR-, MID-, NON-, PRE-, RE-, SUPER-, UN-, UNDER-.  Common suffixes are: – ABLE, -ED, -ES, -FUL, -ING, -ITY, -IVE, -LESS, -LY, – MENT, -NESS, -TION.
• Identify the vowels. Look at the vowels (A, E, I, O, U) and try to construct the word around them.
• Use a pen and paper. Unscrambling words in your head can be pretty difficult, so grab a pen and a piece of paper to write down word fragments and try out different letter combinations.
