How to build MILWAUKEE 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 3's tiles for October 8, 2026 are:

THY · ME · PET · TIF · OGS · FUR · IOU · SLY · MI · LW · AUK · EE · ME · SSI · DAT · ELE · SS · TI · NI · ER

MILWAUKEE is built by combining the tiles MI · LW · AUK · EE in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in MILWAUKEE early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
