About EH
Canadians are famous for ending a sentence with eh, but people everywhere use it to ask for agreement or to say they didn't hear. EH is a good spot for the H, which is worth 4 points, and it pairs with HE when you read it backward. Add a front letter for FEH or HEH, and the H can then reach a letter bonus in two directions at once, which is how small words win big points.

EH scores 5 points
Before any bonus squares: E 1 + H 4 = 5. On a double-word square that's 10, on a triple-word 15, and every letter bonus under one of these tiles is applied first.
Example: EH as the first play
Later in the game, put the H on a 3L square and EH is worth 13 before any word bonus.
