How to build NUCLEOLUS 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 September 19, 2026 are:
WHI · TE · SOL · EMN · ITY · CA · LA · BR · IA · GA · LL · NO · TA · NUC · LEO · LUS · SE · NSI · BIL · ITY
NUCLEOLUS is built by combining the tiles NUC · LEO · LUS in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in NUCLEOLUS early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
