PHOTOOXIDIZING scores higher than any of them at 37 points in Scrabble, 39 in Words With Friends. GOX is the shortest of them at 11 points in Scrabble and 12 in Words With Friends, which makes it the one to remember when there is barely any room left on the board.
Each word shows what it scores in Scrabble and what it scores in Words With Friends, which is the difference between guessing and knowing.

FAQs
1What is the highest scoring word with G and X in it?
The highest scorer is PHOTOOXIDIZING, which is worth 37 points in Scrabble and 39 in Words With Friends. That is what it earns on its own, and any bonus square it lands on multiplies the total further.
2How many points are G and X worth together?
Together the two letters come to 10 points in Scrabble and 11 points in Words With Friends. That is before the rest of the word is counted, so most words holding both finish on a much higher total.
3What is the longest word with G and X in it?
The longest is CONTEXTUALIZING, which runs to 15 letters and scores 34 points in Scrabble. A word that size needs a stretch of open board, so it comes up far less than the shorter ones.
4What is the shortest word with G and X in it?
The shortest is GOX, at 3 letters. Words this small matter more than they look, because they still fit once the board has filled up and nothing longer will go anywhere.
