Big heart? crossword clue
46 Down · WSJ Crossword, September 8, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Big heart?” is ACE. It appears as 46 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 8, 2026, a Tuesday puzzle titled “All Aboard!” by Jerry Miccolis, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 10, column 5 of the 15×15 grid.
The question mark at the end of the clue signals wordplay: the surface reading is a misdirection, and the answer fits a punning or figurative sense of the words. 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. Tuesday puzzles stay approachable with light wordplay, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
