Swap a single tile in weer and you get a different four-letter rack with its own word list. None of these appear in the results above — they share 3 of the 4 letters, not all of them.
weer is in the NWL, the official Scrabble word list for North America, and in the Words With Friends dictionary, so it's playable exactly as it stands and needs no unscrambling.
Both totals match, because every tile in weer carries the same value on a Scrabble board and on a Words With Friends board.
weer is one of three four-letter words the same letters produce. No arrangement of the same tiles scores higher in Scrabble, so playing weer unchanged also takes the maximum points these letters offer.
The highest-scoring plays from these letters are ewer, weer, and were, worth 7 points in Scrabble, and nothing else built from weer 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 weer produce 12 valid words in the Scrabble and Words With Friends dictionaries. The word count by length is: 3 four-letter words, 5 three-letter words and 4 two-letter words.
