Words containing X
Every word in the Clue Cache dictionary that contains the letter X in any position: 2,901 words, from abaxial to zootoxin. Players reach for it when a rack or a hive is built around X, and crossword solvers use it to check a slot where X is the one letter they are sure of before they fill in anything else. X shows up in short, punchy words far more often than its rarity suggests, which makes this a high-value study list.

About this word list
This list comes from the same SCOWL-based dictionary as the Clue Cache solvers. The games edit their own word lists by hand, so a word here is not a promise that Scrabble, Words With Friends or the NYT accepts it, and a game may accept a rare word this list misses. For a specific day, see today's Spelling Bee and today's Wordle.
