Out of date crossword clue
39 Across · WSJ Crossword, October 19, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Out of date” is OLD. It appears as 39 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of October 19, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Split Decision” by Adam Simpson, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 8, column 7 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 O and ends with D, and contains 1 vowel 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. Monday puzzles are the most approachable of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
