About 10-Letter Words
At ten letters, word structure almost always follows recognizable patterns built from familiar roots plus suffixes. JUXTAPOSES (29 pts) extends JUXTAPOSE with a simple S; QUANDARIES follows the -ARIES plural pattern; JACKHAMMER is a compound of two common English words. Studying -TION (COMPLETION, TRANSITION), -MENT (ATTACHMENT, ADJUSTMENT), and -NESS (CLEVERNESS, AWARENESS) endings dramatically expands your 10-letter vocabulary without requiring the memorization of entirely new roots. These suffixes alone account for thousands of valid 10-letter words.
- •Study -TION, -MENT, and -NESS endings at 10 letters — attaching these suffixes to familiar 7-8 letter roots creates hundreds of valid words.
- •Compound words like JACKHAMMER are memorable because both component words are already familiar — look for familiar pairs in your rack tiles.
- •JUXTAPOSES uses both J and X; if you hold both tiles on your rack, this word should immediately come to mind as a potential bingo play.
