INTRODUCTIONIt is with great pleasure that we present the initiation kit for CSW19.With 2862 new words, of which only 617 are of 2-8 letters, this is a relatively small update.I am very grateful to David Sutton for producing this kit, and to our dictionary team of DarrylFrancis and David Sutton for producing the updated word list on time as always.It is intended that the new list will be used in WESPA-rated tournaments from 1 July 2019,or before if individual associations are ready and wish to do so.With best wishes,Elie DangoorWESPA ChairmanVersion 1.0 May 2, 20192

The Purpose of this BookletThe transition from the 2015 version of the Collins Scrabble Tournament & Club Word List(hereinafter referred to as CSW15) to the 2019 version (hereinafter referred to as CSW19)involves 2862 new words in total, of which 1258 of length 2 to 9 letters, with 617 of length 2to 8 letters. There are 29 deletions of existing words, of which 6 are of length 2 to 8 letters.There are already over 150,000 words of 9 letters or fewer in CSW15. Most averageplayers are familiar with only a fraction of those and can play a very good game at theirlevel through focusing on just those words most useful for Scrabble. Thus it is suggestedthat you need only be familiar with a few hundred of the unique CSW19 words to play asolid game under the new word rules. In most game situations, knowledge of at least thenew 2 and 3-letter words will be very important, together with some acquaintance with themost likely new bonus words; even given no more than that, the wealth of words alreadyavailable will enable players to still play a strong CSW19 game.This initiation kit focuses on the CSW19 unique words of 2 to 8 letters. There are not somany of these as usual with an update, just 617, but even so don’t feel you have to learnthem all at once. Introduce a few into your game as you go, you will soon realise the mostuseful ones and also learn more from what your opponents are playing.The format of the booklet is similar to that used for the CSW15 version, but because thenumber of words with 2 to 8 letters is relatively small this time it seeks to cover all of them.Thus we have: definitions for all new twos, threes, fours, fives, sixes, sevens and eights a separate section highlighting those new words up to eight letters that contain thehigh-value letters JQXZ a separate section highlighting the new vowel-heavy fours, fives, sixes, sevens andeights new unique hooks for twos, threes, fours and fives new –S hooks for all lengths up to and including eight letters 7-letter solutions unique to CSW19 based on the top 250 CSW19 6-letter stems 8-letter solutions unique to CSW19 based on the top 250 CSW19 7-letter stems lists of unique CSW19 7-letter words and 8-letter words from the top 10000 words a tabulated summary of the impacts on words of 2 to 8 letters already existing inCSW15, e.g. changes to parts of speech involving new inflections, or additional variantforms. This is aimed at more seasoned players with a good knowledge of CSW15, andcan be ignored by those simply wanting a rundown on the most important elements ofthe new additions an appendix listing the deleted words of 2-8 letters an appendix listing the handful of words of 9 letters or fewer that are playable whenusing the American word list NWL2018 but not under CSW19 an appendix explaining the sources of the word list i.e. the dictionary authorities usedVersion 1.0 May 2, 20193

an appendix giving an explanatory note concerning 'long words' i.e. words of 10-15letters an appendix containing a table of statistics giving a historical perspective on thedevelopment of the word list since 2003.There is inevitably some repetition of content between the main sections, but this shouldserve to reinforce the new information.Version History2/05/2019 First issue.Version 1.0 May 2, 20194
