That seems to have been drawn by someone who thinks that
Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch is a
typical Welsh word. It isn't.

Of course, for Welsh speakers. I never played the English version of
Scrabble, although I have one, but I played the Italian and German ones,
obviously with different values for some letters.

I'd like to play Scrabble more often, but I can't play it alone.

I play online against the computer at
https://www.solitaireparadise.com/games_list/scrabble-online.html

I play using American English, but it can be played in UK English,
Spanish, German, French, or Dutch.

There is a link to an online Italian Scrabble, but it looks like you
play someone else that the computer assigns:
