In America, Canada, Israel and Thailand, the game of Scrabble is governed by the American Tournament Word List (TWL), which is based on a modified version of the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary (OSPD). All other English-speaking countries rely on the Official Scrabble Words International (OSWI) book, which contains words from both the OSPD and the Official Scrabble Words (OSW) book; this is also known as SOWPODS, an abbreviation of OSPD and SOW.
