How to build TEMPED 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 October 11, 2026 are:

QU · AR · TET · ERRA · TUM · APPE · TIZI · NG · GI · RD · LING · TE · MPED · HU · BB · ARD · TR · AN · SI · ENCE

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