What is the best strategy for solving scrambled words?

Answer

A useful strategy is to look for letters that go together, such as "cr," "sh," "ph," and so on, or to identify common prefixes or suffixes.

Because unscrambling can require extensive English proficiency, reading often will help improve your vocabulary.

If you really get stuck, there are tools on the internet that will show all the possible combinations of the letters, such as http://www.unscramble.net/.
