Inspired cry crossword clue

20 Across · WSJ Crossword, July 2, 2026 · 3 letters

Answer
AHA
AHA (3 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Inspired cry” is AHA. It appears as 20 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 2, 2026, a Thursday puzzle titled “Circular Reasoning” by David Steinberg, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 4, column 1 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 A and ends with A, 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. Thursday puzzles lean harder on misdirection, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
