Inverness inhabitant crossword clue

36 Down · WSJ Crossword, July 14, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
SCOT
SCOT (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Inverness inhabitant” is SCOT. It appears as 36 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 14, 2026, a Tuesday puzzle titled “Mum’s the Word” by Prasanna Keshava, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 7, column 15 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 T, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Tuesday puzzles stay approachable with light wordplay, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
