Scrabble Words - Two Letter Scrabble Word ListsThis section offers a discussion of various two and three letter Scrabble words and includes a full list of these words and their plural forms. Each player in a game of Scrabble will have varying level of commitment. New players may enjoy a simple game every holiday or at family gatherings, while others may play serious and competitive games. There are also those that compete in tournaments held all over the world, so each player is totally different. The very first step to move from a friendly and simple game to a competitive game is to learn a list of short words that can be easily placed on the board. Two and three letter words are the key to helping any player improve when they play Scrabble. By learning and memorising some of the shortest words in the languages, players will have better chances at scoring points when others would pass. Short Word StrategiesShort words do not always mean low points. There are some situations where these words can result in some impressive scores. They are also useful towards the end of the game where not many spaces are left open on the board. Short words will also allow a player to play defensively, where they can score a few points without providing other players with an opportunity to score high points. There are number of times when three letter words are important in the game of Scrabble. Here are some strategies where a two or three letter word will benefit any player. Parallel PlaysThis occurs when a player can play a two letter word along the length of an already placed word, resulting in the scoring of multiple words. Playing on a Blocked BoardMany opponents will play defensive Scrabble and there may not be many openings on the board to place a long word. Knowing various two letter words will allow something to be squeezed in where players may not have thought a word could be played. It is possible to get in a two letter word on a multiplying square to collect more points and play defensively at the same time. 2-Letter WordsTwo letter words may not seem important, but they are the key to being a successful Scrabble player.
