How to build POPPED 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 September 20, 2026 are:

CHA · GR · IN · PO · PP · ED · WOR · TH · SKI · LLF · UL · LY · DIS · CRE · DIT · MUL · TIP · LES · DA · TA

POPPED is built by combining the tiles PO · PP · ED in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in POPPED early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
