About Words Starting With K

K is worth 5 Scrabble points and appears in roughly 400 English words. Short K-words (KEY, KIT, KID, KEG, KEN, KIP) score 10+ points each. KN- cluster words (KNEE, KNIT, KNOB, KNOT, KNOCK, KNOW, KNOWN, KNOWER) score 12-16 points. KE- prefix creates KEEP, KEEKS, KEEPER, KETTLE, KERNEL, KEROSENE. KA- creates KALE, KAYAK, KAPPA. The K vocabulary is smaller than most letters but scores solidly, and K-tiles are rarely used in existing board letters, giving K-starting plays high value in competitive Scrabble.

•KN- cluster words (KNOW, KNIT, KNOB, KNOT) score 5+ points with just 1 new tile.
•K- is rarely in existing board letters — look for K-extensions as conversions.
•Short K-words like KEY, KIT, KID score well and open multiple directions.
