How to build FLEW 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 2's tiles for August 5, 2026 are:

FL · EW · IMI · TAB · LE · PUR · PORT · ING · PRE · FAC · ED · SHI · FTS · TRI · NKE · TS · ST · RES · SFU · LLY

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