Memorable spans crossword clue
45 Across · WSJ Crossword, November 6, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Memorable spans” is ERAS. It appears as 45 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of November 6, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Bleep! Bleep!” by Loren Kristan Mell, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 7, column 9 of the 21×21 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with E and ends with S, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
