Parisian’s passion crossword clue

86 Across · WSJ Crossword, October 9, 2026 · 5 letters

Answer
AMOUR
AMOUR (5 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Parisian’s passion” is AMOUR. It appears as 86 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of October 9, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Under the Weather” by Alan Olschwang, and it fills 5 squares running left to right from row 13, column 17 of the 21×21 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 A and ends with R, and contains 3 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.
