Amazed admiration crossword clue
61 Down · WSJ Crossword, June 24, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Amazed admiration” is AWE. It appears as 61 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 24, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Digital Divide” by Bharati Hemmady & Jeff Chen, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 13, column 6 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 E, and contains 2 vowels and 1 consonant. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
