How to build HINT 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 2's tiles for September 15, 2026 are:
CA · RDS · DE · FL · EC · TS · HI · NT · GL · OV · ED · BR · OSN · AN · GR · IN · DER · ALL · OC · ATE
HINT is built by combining the tiles HI · NT in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in HINT early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
