There are 2 four-letter words hiding in qadi: one comes from rearranging its letters, and qadi itself is already a playable word with no unscrambling required. No common everyday answer stands out among these four-letter results, so let the score decide: the highest-scoring words are qadi and qaid, each worth 14 points in Scrabble.
Below, the list runs in alphabetical order, with each score based on the playable tile set — premium squares not included.

The full list follows, sorted A to Z; every score reflects tile constraints and skips board bonuses.
qadi appears in the word lists that Scrabble and Words With Friends validate against, so the rack is playable exactly as it stands and needs no unscrambling.
Both totals match, because every tile in qadi carries the same value on a Scrabble board and on a Words With Friends board.
Dictionaries record one sense for qadi. Scrabble and Words With Friends score tiles and not meanings, so every sense below is worth the same 14 points on a Scrabble board:
qadi is one of two four-letter words the same letters produce. No arrangement of the same tiles scores higher in Scrabble, so playing qadi unchanged also takes the maximum points these letters offer.
The highest-scoring plays from these letters are qadi and qaid, worth 14 points in Scrabble, and nothing else built from qadi earns more points in Scrabble. Words With Friends prices the same letters differently, so the top of the list changes on a Words With Friends board. Both scores count tile values only and exclude premium squares.
The letters in qadi produce 8 valid words in the Scrabble and Words With Friends dictionaries. The word count by length is: 2 four-letter words, 1 three-letter word and 5 two-letter words.
The anagram solver inside UnscrambleX compares qadi against the dictionaries used by Scrabble, Words With Friends, Word Jumble, and Text Twist, keeps every arrangement those dictionaries contain, and sorts the confirmed words by tile score. That sorting step is why qadi and qaid appear at the top of the results. A word on this page is a legal play in Scrabble and Words With Friends, not a letter combination that only looks like a word.
Unscrambling qadi produces two kinds of plays in Scrabble and Words With Friends: one high-scoring word, and one short word that fits a crowded board.
The high-scoring play is qadi. The short plays are ad and ai, and they cover the turns when the board leaves no open line long enough for the bigger word.
The score gap is exact: the lowest-scoring word from these letters earns 2 points in Scrabble and the highest-scoring word earns 14 points. The letters are identical in both cases, so the board decides the value of the turn.
UnscrambleX lists every word from these letters with its Scrabble score and its Words With Friends score, so the choice between points and board position is made from numbers instead of memory.
The results list works as a vocabulary drill for Scrabble and Words With Friends players. Cover the list, rearrange qadi in your head, and count how many of the 8 words you find before you check the answers.
Experienced players find the long words such as qadi and qaid without help. The short words are the ones that go unnoticed, and short words decide close games in Scrabble, Words With Friends, and Text Twist.
Repeat the drill on a few letter sets each day. Vowel positions, common endings such as -ed and -ing, and high-value tiles become recognisable without an unscrambler.
Unscrambling adds words that reading never supplies. No Scrabble player opens a dictionary to look for ai, and the word enters a playable vocabulary only because a results list produced it.
Spelling accuracy improves at the same time. Building qadi from loose tiles forces one letter order and returns a correct or incorrect verdict inside the same move, which is faster feedback than a spelling test. Plays from qadi range from 2 to 14 points in Scrabble, so every turn also asks a scoring question: take the points now, or keep the flexible tiles for the next turn.
Words assembled from tiles are remembered better than words only read, and timed games such as Text Twist and Word Jumble reward that recall directly.
