How to build FIELD 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 October 5, 2026 are:

DIS · HW · ATER · APO · STR · OPHE · MIRR · OR · LIKE · GA · BBY · BA · NKRO · LLER · FI · ELD · BL · OW · TOR · CH

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