Most impulsive crossword clue
23 Down · WSJ Crossword, July 28, 2026 · 7 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Most impulsive” is RASHEST. It appears as 23 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 28, 2026, a Tuesday puzzle titled “Bird Is the Word” by Jay Silverman, and it fills 7 squares running top to bottom from row 4, column 11 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 R and ends with T, and contains 2 vowels and 5 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.
