Word Lanes Level 1424 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 1424, part of the Levels 1401-1500 block. Level 1424 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
PHANTASM 8 letters - "An illusion, a figment of the imagination" is a straight definition, and PHANTASM is the word that matches. SMALLEST in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
POWERS 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: POWERS completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
WILDASS 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Etymological meaning of zebra" asks for more than one, and WILDASS fits. It opens with an uncommon W, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
ANSEL 5 letters - reading "First name of photographer of the American West" literally points to ANSEL. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
HUNGER 6 letters - "Games played by Katniss Everdeen" is a straight definition, and HUNGER is the word that matches. It begins with H and ends with R; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
DIAMOND 7 letters - the clue "Hardest known gem, the birthstone for April" describes DIAMOND directly. It begins with D and ends with D; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
SMALLEST 8 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: SMALLEST completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The doubled L is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
MACDONALD 9 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: MACDONALD completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It is the longest answer in Level 1424, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
