How to build TOTES 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 1's tiles for August 28, 2026 are:
TOT · ES · HAB · ITS · CAR · EER · CON · NE · CTI · CUT · CR · OQU · ET · OP · ALE · SC · ENT · SA · MP · RAS
TOTES is built by combining the tiles TOT · ES in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in TOTES early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
