Word Lanes Level 4980 Answers
12 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 4980, part of the Levels 4901-5000 block. Level 4980 contains 12 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 are advanced levels, leaning on cultural references, lateral thinking, and longer answers. 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. You can also browse the neighbouring levels further down this page, jump back to the full 4901-5000 index, open the complete level list, or read the Tips for tactics that work on every tier.

Word-by-Word Breakdown
OFF 3 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: OFF completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It ties with RED for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
RED 3 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: RED completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. At just 3 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.
SWEATER 7 letters - "Another word for a jumper made from wool" leads to SWEATER by definition. BROWSER in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
RHODES 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: RHODES completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
MAY 3 letters - MAY is a short, common word - the clue "Fifth month of the calendar year" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with M and ends with Y; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
BROWSER 7 letters - the clue "Firefox, Chrome or Edge" describes BROWSER directly. It begins with B and ends with R; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
KINGS 5 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Henry VIII, William I, Arthur of Camelot" asks for more than one, and KINGS fits. It opens with an uncommon K, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
MOZZARELLA 10 letters - reading "Italian pizza cheese" literally points to MOZZARELLA. It is the longest answer in Level 4980, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
NIMBLE 6 letters - "Jack had to be this to jump over the candlestick" is a straight definition, and NIMBLE is the word that matches. It begins with N and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
ZHANGJUE 8 letters - the clue "Leader of China's Yellow Turban Rebellion" describes ZHANGJUE directly. It opens with an uncommon Z, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
MPG 3 letters - MPG is a short, common word - the clue "Measurement of fuel economy" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with M and ends with G; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
NIP 3 letters - NIP is a short, common word - the clue "What Nat King Cole said Jack Frost does to noses" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with N and ends with P; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
