Strategy for this list

Thirteen-letter words are grid-fillers in themed crosswords and occasionally appear as the winning play in exhibition Scrabble games. They divide almost perfectly into two groups: Latinate abstract nouns (JUSTIFICATION, ADMINISTRATOR) and technical compounds (CONFECTIONERS, GRANDCHILDREN). Recognising which group a clue points to narrows the search space by an order of magnitude. For puzzle solvers, thirteen-letter answers are usually the clue for the theme itself — solve them first because they reveal the constraints on shorter answers.
