Why H at the End Matters
💡 Tile Value
H's 4 points are a reasonable chunk of a 7-letter word's total score without being so rare that plays are hard to find.
Because H lands last, 7-letter words ending with H are naturally suited to hooking: adding H onto a shorter word already on the board to build a new one on your turn.
Notable Words
Highest scorer: MEZUZAH is worth 30 points — H's 4 points plus the rest of the tiles in the word. It's the play to look for if you're building toward a big turn.
Worth memorising first: SQUELCH (21 points) is one of the lower scorers here, which usually means it's a more familiar word — a safer one to keep in your working vocabulary than the obscure high scorers.
How many options: 550 valid 7-letter words ending with H exist in SOWPODS — fewer than the ~1398 typical for this slot, so it's realistic to learn most of the useful ones.

🧩 Worked Example
MEZUZAH works as a hook too: if MEZUZA is already on the board, adding the final H to reach MEZUZAH lets you play across an existing word rather than starting fresh.
