How to build WILHELM 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 4's tiles for September 6, 2026 are:
WI · LHE · LM · SEM · ICO · LON · CLI · CK · FRA · TER · NAL · DOL · LYW · OOD · MOT · ORL · ESS · EGGB · EAT · ERS
WILHELM is built by combining the tiles WI · LHE · LM in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in WILHELM early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
