Puts into words crossword clue
70 Across · WSJ Crossword, October 1, 2026 · 6 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Puts into words” is STATES. It appears as 70 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of October 1, 2026, a Thursday puzzle titled “We’ll Be Around” by Matt Gaffney, and it fills 6 squares running left to right from row 15, column 6 of the 15×15 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with S and ends with S, and contains 2 vowels and 4 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Thursday puzzles lean harder on misdirection, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
