Why is it important to know words with a lot of vowels?

Knowing words with a lot of vowels is important for Scrabble players because it helps them use the many vowel tiles they get throughout the game. Scrabble has 42 vowels out of 100 total tiles, and it’s not uncommon to have 5, 6, or even all vowels in your rack at once.

Memorizing vowel-heavy words keeps you from getting stuck and allows you to use up your vowels to rebalance your tile rack. This helps you become a more competitive player, and makes the game more fun to play!
