How to build DICKSON 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 4's tiles for August 19, 2026 are:
LE · EC · HES · BLO · CKC · HAIN · TW · IN · NI · NG · RE · MO · TES · HERD · WICK · DI · CK · SON · ICE · LAND
DICKSON is built by combining the tiles DI · CK · SON in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in DICKSON early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
