See 44-Down crossword clue

60 Down · WSJ Crossword, August 17, 2026 · 3 letters

Answer
MUD
MUD (3 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “See 44-Down” is MUD. It appears as 60 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 17, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Back Lot” by Kevin Shustack, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 13, column 14 of the 15×15 grid.

This is a cross-reference clue, so the referenced entry supplies the context needed to make sense of it. The entry begins with M 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 Across 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.
