How to build ROYALISTS 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 5, 2026 are:
MOL · AR · ITY · SLU · DGE · FRE · QU · ENT · LET · HAR · GIC · PI · ET · ROY · ALI · STS · DEN · ATU · RA · NT
ROYALISTS is built by combining the tiles ROY · ALI · STS in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in ROYALISTS early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
