Word Lanes Level 1197 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 1197, part of the Levels 1101-1200 block. Level 1197 contains 8 clues, each one solved and then typed back into the live Fanatee Inc app so that every answer on this page matches the word the game actually accepts. These sit in the intermediate band, where the order turns random, clues start using wordplay, and multi-word answers appear. Below you will find each clue paired with its exact answer in a clean two-column table, followed by a word-by-word breakdown that explains why each solution fits its lane, how long it is, and which letters it hands to the crossing clues. If a lane is fighting you, start with the longest answer in the level: it releases the most crossing letters and usually collapses the rest of the stack. Because Word Lanes randomises level order per player after Level 12, the number printed on your screen may not be the number here - if the clues below are not the ones you are looking at, use the Clue Search Tool and type any word from your clue instead of hunting by number.

Word-by-Word Breakdown
TEMPLE 6 letters - "A building for religious and spiritual worship" is a straight definition, and TEMPLE is the word that matches. BLAZON in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
PESTICIDE 9 letters - the clue "Chemical used to kill bugs and weeds" describes PESTICIDE directly. It is the longest answer in Level 1197, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
BLAZON 6 letters - "Display in a prominent place" leads to BLAZON by definition. It begins with B and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
PLAYFUL 7 letters - reading "Full of fun, frisky, joyous, bouncy" literally points to PLAYFUL. It begins with P and ends with L; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
CROSSBAR 8 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so CROSSBAR goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 8 letters. The doubled S is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
BEATNIK 7 letters - the clue "Member of 1950s counterculture, wore black a lot" describes BEATNIK directly. It begins with B and ends with K; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
MIDGE 5 letters - "Tiny gnat" leads to MIDGE by definition. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
SCRABBLE 8 letters - reading "Word-linking board game invented in 1938" literally points to SCRABBLE. The doubled B is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
