Sort who can’t keep a secret crossword clue

11 Down · WSJ Crossword, August 23, 2026 · 8 letters

Answer
BIGMOUTH
BIGMOUTH (8 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Sort who can’t keep a secret” is BIGMOUTH. It appears as 11 Down 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 8 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 13 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 B and ends with H, and contains 3 vowels and 5 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across 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.

Past appearances

BIGMOUTH has not appeared as an answer in any other WSJ puzzle in our index, which runs from May 2026 onward. It will be listed here the next time it turns up.
