Cross-referencing word crossword clue
38 Across · WSJ Crossword, September 18, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Cross-referencing word” is SEE. It appears as 38 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 18, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Guest Workers” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 6, column 6 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 S 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 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.
