How to build YORK 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 5's tiles for September 13, 2026 are:
YO · RK · PAT · HOS · TEL · EG · RAP · HS · CHI · LLI · NG · CYM · BID · IUM · TRA · NSI · ENCE · TW · EET · ED
YORK is built by combining the tiles YO · RK in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in YORK early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
