How to build LEAPT 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 August 30, 2026 are:
EC · HO · AD · RE · NA · LI · NE · CA · LMS · TU · MB · LE · COM · PET · ED · LE · APT · AP · RO · POS
LEAPT is built by combining the tiles LE · APT in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in LEAPT early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
