6 Letter Words Starting With D

Playing 6 letter words starting with D

Six-letter words are some of the most valuable plays in Scrabble and Words With Friends — long enough to rack up points and open the board, short enough to fit almost anywhere. This page lists every valid six-letter word beginning with the letter D, so you can scan for the highest-scoring option that fits your rack and the tiles already down.

Each word shows its base Scrabble tile value. Remember that premium squares (double/triple letter and word bonuses) can change which play is actually best, so a lower-value word on the right square often beats a higher-value one played flat. If you have a full rack, check whether any seven-letter extension of these words earns you the 50-point bingo bonus.
