How to build WATERCOLORS 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 9, 2026 are:
WAT · ER · CO · LO · RS · ZES · TF · UL · LUT · IST · POE · TRY · SI · LIC · ON · AD · IOS · LO · CA · LS
WATERCOLORS is built by combining the tiles WAT · ER · CO · LO · RS in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in WATERCOLORS early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
