How to build DIVERT 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 September 23, 2026 are:

DA · WD · LE · LIM · IT · CO · PSE · DI · VE · RT · AE · ST · HE · TE · SU · NK · IN · WA · RD · LY

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