Give off crossword clue
12 Down · WSJ Crossword, August 26, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Give off” is EMIT. It appears as 12 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 26, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Whew!” by Alan Olschwang, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 14 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 T, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
