Words with J and L in them go from 4 letters up to 15. Both letters have to appear in the same word, which rules out most of the dictionary and leaves a set small enough to be worth reading.
Nothing here beats JAZZLIKE at 37 points in Scrabble, 40 in Words With Friends. JAIL is the shortest of them at 11 points in Scrabble and 14 in Words With Friends, which makes it the one to remember when there is barely any room left on the board.
Every word carries its Scrabble score and its Words With Friends score, so weighing one against another takes no arithmetic.

FAQs
1What is the highest scoring word with J and L in it?
The highest scorer is JAZZLIKE, which is worth 37 points in Scrabble and 40 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 J and L worth together?
Together the two letters come to 9 points in Scrabble and 12 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 J and L in it?
The longest is ADJUSTABILITIES, which runs to 15 letters and scores 25 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 J and L in it?
The shortest is JAIL, at 4 letters, alongside JARL and JELL. Words this small matter more than they look, because they still fit once the board has filled up and nothing longer will go anywhere.
