Words with V and W in them run from 3 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.
OVERBEJEWELED scores higher than any of them at 29 points in Scrabble, 34 in Words With Friends. VAW is the shortest of them at 9 points in Scrabble and 10 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 V and W in it?
The highest scorer is OVERBEJEWELED, which is worth 29 points in Scrabble and 34 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 V and W worth together?
Together the two letters come to 8 points in Scrabble and 9 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 V and W in it?
The longest is MULTIWAVELENGTH, which runs to 15 letters and scores 27 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 V and W in it?
The shortest is VAW, at 3 letters, alongside VOW. Words this small matter more than they look, because they still fit once the board has filled up and nothing longer will go anywhere.
