CIE 3 letters - CIE is a short, common word - the clue "Abréviation du mot compagnie" gives it away with a straight definition. It ties with NEF for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.

AVIS 4 letters - the clue "C'est un point de vue" describes AVIS directly. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.

NEF 3 letters - NEF is a short, common word - the clue "Celle des fous fut peinte par Jérôme Bosch en 1500" gives it away with a straight definition. At just 3 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.

HAMAC 5 letters - reading "Filet suspendu souvent utilisé comme lit" literally points to HAMAC. PAPIS in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.

PROJET 6 letters - "Idée à mettre en oeuvre" is a straight definition, and PROJET is the word that matches. It is the longest answer in Level 3496, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.

MAI 3 letters - MAI is a short, common word - the clue "Mois de l'année où l'on fait ce qu'il nous plaît" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with M and ends with I; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

FLOU 4 letters - "Qui est vague, imprécis" leads to FLOU by definition. At just 4 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.

PAPIS 5 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Synonyme de « grands-pères »" asks for more than one, and PAPIS fits. It begins with P and ends with S; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

VOL 3 letters - VOL is a short, common word - the clue "Voyage en avion entre deux localisations" gives it away with a straight definition. It opens with an uncommon V, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
