How to build BUDDLEIA 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 5's tiles for July 29, 2026 are:
CE · DE · FU · ME · WA · XI · NE · SS · HO · PP · EN · IT · CH · ING · RAD · IX · BU · DD · LE · IA
BUDDLEIA is built by combining the tiles BU · DD · LE · IA in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in BUDDLEIA early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
