PH Strategy Tips
Target H on DLS: H is worth 4 points — on a Double Letter Score it becomes 8. Position PH words so H lands on premium squares for maximum value.
Short PH words: PHO (8pts) and PHI (8pts) are 3-letter PH words that fit anywhere. Use them when the board is crowded and longer words won't fit.
Greek origins: Many PH words come from Greek — PHOTO, PHASE, PHOSPHOR. Know Greek roots and you'll spot PH opportunities others miss.
