“Money that’s borrowed from a bank” answer
The Crossclimb answer for “Money that’s borrowed from a bank” (Thursday, July 23, 2026) is:
LOAN
You can also reveal it one letter at a time with the tiles above if you'd rather keep some of the challenge.
Why the answer is LOAN
From MOAN you change the first letter of MOAN from M to L to reach LOAN, then change the fourth letter of LOAN from N to F to get LOAF.
How LOAN fits the ladder
Crossclimb stacks 7 words where each one changes a single letter from the word above it. Here's the full ladder for July 23, 2026, with “Money that’s borrowed from a bank” highlighted:
| Rung | Word | Clue |
|---|---|---|
| Top word | TURN | (unlocks last — fits the letters above the ladder) |
| Clue rung | TORN | Struggling to decide between two choices |
| Clue rung | MORN | Start of the day, poetically |
| Clue rung | MOAN | Wailing sound, perhaps heard from a ghost in a horror movie |
| Clue rung | LOAN ← this clue | Money that’s borrowed from a bank |
| Clue rung | LOAF | Common amount of bread to purchase |
| Bottom word | LEAF | (unlocks last — fits the letters below the ladder) |
LOAN sits at rung 4: from MOAN you change the first letter of MOAN from M to L to reach LOAN, then change the fourth letter of LOAN from N to F to get LOAF. Each neighbouring rung is exactly one letter away, which is how you can derive LOAN even if the clue alone stumps you — solve a neighbour and the single-letter rule points straight here.
