Explanation
The answer to “Alaskan islander” is ALEUT. It appears as 12 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 31, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Here’s The Deal” by Zachary David Levy, and it fills 5 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 14 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with A and ends with T, and contains 3 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Monday puzzles are the most approachable of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
