How to build YPSILANTI 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 26, 2026 are:

CRI · CKE · TERS · YP · SILA · NTI · VI · ENTI · ANE · ORC · HARD · FU · SI · FO · RM · PILL · OWY · AS · SA · ULT

YPSILANTI is built by combining the tiles YP · SILA · NTI in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in YPSILANTI early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
