Auto correction crossword clue

118 Across · WSJ Crossword, September 4, 2026 · 6 letters

Answer
TUNEUP
TUNEUP (6 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Auto correction” is TUNEUP. It appears as 118 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 4, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “AI Slop” by Christopher Youngs, and it fills 6 squares running left to right from row 18, column 10 of the 21×21 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 T and ends with P, and contains 3 vowels and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
