How to build SLIGHTING 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 2's tiles for August 6, 2026 are:
UN · US · UAL · FUN · NE · LS · SLI · GHT · ING · BE · EFI · EST · HE · ARS · VIS · IB · LE · BI · SH · OP
SLIGHTING is built by combining the tiles SLI · GHT · ING in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in SLIGHTING early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
