Jest pro crossword clue
1 Across · WSJ Crossword, June 24, 2026 · 5 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Jest pro” is COMIC. It appears as 1 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 24, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Digital Divide” by Bharati Hemmady & Jeff Chen, and it fills 5 squares running left to right from row 1, 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 C and ends with C, and contains 2 vowels and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down 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.
