How to build FORENSICS 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 August 25, 2026 are:

SI · ST · ER · FOR · ENS · ICS · ACC · OL · ADE · CON · VI · CT · ST · ROP · MO · NIT · OR · ING · HER · IOT

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