Send a racy phone message to crossword clue

63 Across · WSJ Crossword, August 23, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
SEXT
SEXT (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Send a racy phone message to” is SEXT. It appears as 63 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 23, 2026, a Sunday puzzle titled “C-llectively Speaking” by Andrea Carla Michaels & Kevin Christian, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 15, column 2 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 S and ends with T, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Weekend puzzles follow the same conventions as the weekday grids, pitched a notch above midweek, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
