Daughter’s brother crossword clue

46 Across · WSJ Crossword, September 20, 2026 · 3 letters

Answer

SON

SON (3 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Daughter’s brother” is SON. It appears as 46 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 20, 2026, a Sunday puzzle titled “Chill Out” by Kevin Christian & Andrea Carla Michaels, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 10, column 5 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 S and ends with N, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Weekend puzzles follow the same conventions as the weekday grids, pitched a notch above midweek, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
