General Question
How does Scrabble letter distribution work outside the US?
Is Scrabble as popular in other countries?
For example -
The letter ‘u’ shows up in comparatively more words in the UK (colour, favour, etc.) than in the US. Does the UK Game have an extra ‘u’?
The German letter ß isn’t used anywhere but Germany. Is that represented in German Scrabble?
Does the French Scrabble have accents on vowels? Do they make a difference? What about Spanish diacritics?
And what about languages like Polish, Icelandic, and others that use a mostly Roman character set, but with various additions?
And let’s not even get into Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Thai, and various Indian scripts.
How is letter frequency handled?
