For that reason crossword clue

18 Across · WSJ Crossword, July 3, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
ERGO
ERGO (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “For that reason” is ERGO. It appears as 18 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 3, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Shades of Difference” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 3, column 12 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 E and ends with O, and contains 2 vowels 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. 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.
