How to build TECHNIQUE 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 14, 2026 are:
SPLI · CES · ACER · BIC · DIRE · CT · ION · DIV · ES · TI · TURE · YE · STER · DAY · COL · LEG · IAN · TECH · NIQ · UE
TECHNIQUE is built by combining the tiles TECH · NIQ · UE in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in TECHNIQUE early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
