Unwelcome look crossword clue

51 Down · WSJ Crossword, May 15, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
OGLE
OGLE (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Unwelcome look” is OGLE. It appears as 51 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of May 15, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Prep Work” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 12, column 14 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 O and ends with E, and contains 2 vowels 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. 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.
