Language suffix crossword clue

33 Across · WSJ Crossword, August 24, 2026 · 3 letters

Answer
ESE
ESE (3 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Language suffix” is ESE. It appears as 33 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 24, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Buckling Up” by Zhouqin Burnikel, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 7, column 6 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 E, 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. Monday puzzles are the most approachable of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
