How to build SARABI 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 October 9, 2026 are:

CL · AMM · IER · INC · ULP · ATE · AN · TIQ · UE · MI · SPL · AC · ES · DU · CKY · PHA · NT · OM · SAR · ABI

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