Wee annoyance crossword clue
29 Across · WSJ Crossword, September 29, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Wee annoyance” is GNAT. It appears as 29 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 29, 2026, a Tuesday puzzle titled “Switching Seats” by Ella Dershowitz, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 6, column 12 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 G 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. Tuesday puzzles stay approachable with light wordplay, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
