How to build WITNESSED 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 21, 2026 are:

SH · OR · TNE · SS · ORA · TOR · RO · SE · TTE · BRAN · AGH · BRA · NDEN · BURG · WIT · NE · SSED · SC · HEMA · TIC

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