How to solve the LA Times Crossword

Fill the grid so that every Across and Down answer matches its clue.

LA Times Crossword tips for tomorrow

  • Start with the fills you know cold. Three- and four-letter answers anchor the grid and unlock the longer entries.
  • Look for question marks. A clue ending in “?” almost always signals a pun or non-literal definition.
  • Mind the tense and number. If the clue is plural, the answer is plural; if past tense, the answer ends in -ED or follows the verb's irregular form.
