How to build BOLOGNA from the tiles
In 7 Little Words you don't type the answer — you assemble it from the puzzle's shared tile bank, and every tile is used exactly once across all seven answers. Puzzle 4's tiles for July 17, 2026 are:
SA · GE · BO · LO · GNA · OME · LE · TTE · MUD · DYI · NG · DES · OL · AT · ION · AT · TAC · HE · REV · OLT
BOLOGNA is built by combining the tiles BO · LO · GNA in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in BOLOGNA early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
