Refined is a common crossword clue with several possible answers depending on length. Here are the most typical solutions by letter count:
- 4 letters: PURE
- 5 letters: CIVIL, CLEAN, TASTE (though TASTE is more a partial match), GENT
- 6 letters: POLITE, URBANE, ELIGRE? (more commonly URBANE and POLITE)
- 7 letters: ELEGANT, GENTEEL, NUANCED
- 8 letters: POLISHED, TASTEFUL
- 9 letters: AESTHETIC, DISTILLED
- 10 letters: CULTIVATED
- 11+ letters: CHARACTERIZED phrases exist, but are puzzle-dependent
If you can share the exact puzzle length (and any crossing letters you have), the most precise answer can be pinpointed. If you’re solving a specific clue from a recent puzzle (e.g., Guardian Quick, NYT, or another outlet) and your grid indicates a certain length, I can narrow it to the best-fit option.
