How to build ANECDOTES 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 September 20, 2026 are:
DE · ADL · OCK · GO · GG · LES · SH · OCK · ER · DEL · VES · CIR · CUL · ATE · ENT · ERTA · INS · ANE · CDO · TES
ANECDOTES is built by combining the tiles ANE · CDO · TES in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in ANECDOTES early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
