A DWS with the word LOFTY

In Scrabble, a double word score, or DWS, is a premium scoring space. This means that a word set on the board covers a "Double Word Score" space. That word scores twice as much as it normally would. In the pictorial example to the right, the word lofty covers a "Double Word Score" space, scoring 30 points:

  • L scores 2 points.
  • O scores 2 points.
  • F scores 8 points.
  • T scores 2 points.
  • Y scores 16 points.

On the board, a "Double Word Score" space is designated by a light pink color.
