How to use this word finder

Say you have a word like questionable and want to find words that can be made from its letters.

Say, also, that you know one of the words may begin with a and end with e, with 3 other characters you don't know in between.

You would put questionable into the source word, and then a...e into the mask. This means you want a word beginning with the the A letter from questionable, any three letters from the rest of the word, and ending with one of the available E letters.

If you put this in it will find all of the matching words and display it to you. You can put a dot anywhere you don't know a letter, and a letter anywhere you do.

It's designed help with word puzzles and games when you're getting frustrated and not willing it part with large amounts of money to get some help.
