22 suffix pages, each with definitions and filters.
If you need words by their first letter instead of their ending, use the A to Z starting-letter hub. Together the two hubs cover both ends of the word — useful when you know one constraint from a crossword, word game, or rhyme scheme and need to work from there.
Ending patterns reveal how words work grammatically. The "-ly" suffix almost always signals an adverb. The "-tion" suffix marks a noun of action or result. "-able" flags an adjective meaning capable of. Once you recognize these patterns, you can decode unfamiliar vocabulary faster and choose words more precisely in writing.
For word games, ending patterns are equally useful. In Wordle, knowing that the answer ends in "-IGHT" immediately cuts the solution space to a handful of words. In Scrabble, memorizing which two-syllable "-ous" or "-ive" words exist can unlock a cramped rack. For poetry and songwriting, suffix pages replace a thesaurus when what you need is not a synonym but a word that sounds right at the end of a line.
Every suffix page on this list shows all matching words from a curated dictionary of 10,000+ entries. Words are displayed as cards with their definition, part of speech, and difficulty level. Use the filter bar at the top of any page to narrow by type (noun, verb, adjective, adverb) or difficulty (easy, medium, hard). The copy button exports whatever is currently visible in one-per-line, comma-separated, or space-separated format.
Pick a suffix from the grid above. Each page shows all matching words from our dictionary, filterable by word type and difficulty. If you don't see the suffix you need, the most common ones are -ING, -LY, -TION, -ED, -ER, -ABLE, and -AL.
Among the suffixes listed here, -LY has the most (971+ words) because it converts almost any adjective into an adverb. -ING (525+) and -ED (611+) are also very large because they are standard verb inflection endings shared by thousands of regular verbs.
Yes. For Wordle, suffix pages help most when you've identified the ending of a 5-letter word — the -IGHT page in particular covers many past Wordle answers. For Scrabble, suffix pages help you find valid words when you have a fixed set of ending tiles on the rack.
Absolutely. Suffix pages are a quick way to find words that share a sound at the end of a line — similar to a rhyming dictionary but organized by spelling pattern rather than phonetics. Pair them with the rhyming dictionary for the best coverage.
