How to build OUNCE 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 11, 2026 are:
CHA · RLO · TTE · IM · BUE · OUN · CE · EN · TAI · LED · FIE · RC · EN · ESS · WI · NCH · ES · SO · MEW · HAT
OUNCE is built by combining the tiles OUN · CE in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in OUNCE early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
