Word Lanes Level 8279 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 8279, part of the Levels 8201-8300 block. Level 8279 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 are among the hardest levels in the game, with obscure trivia and compound answers that reward the crossing-letter method. 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
BUZZER 6 letters - "Desk ringer for teams on quiz shows" is a straight definition, and BUZZER is the word that matches. The doubled Z is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
HEAVY 5 letters - the clue "Having great weight" describes HEAVY directly. It begins with H and ends with Y; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
BILLYCRYSTAL 12 letters - "He was Harry in When Harry met Sally" leads to BILLYCRYSTAL by definition. It ties with IRRITABILITY for the longest lane in Level 8279 at 12 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
ASK 3 letters - ASK is a short, common word - the clue "Request an amount for something" gives it away with a straight definition. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
SHOPAHOLIC 10 letters - "Someone who loves buying things from stores" is a straight definition, and SHOPAHOLIC is the word that matches. At 10 letters this is a long lane - place it early to unlock the maximum number of crossings.
IRRITABILITY 12 letters - the clue "Tetchiness" describes IRRITABILITY directly. The doubled R is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
MISS 4 letters - "To fail to hit a target" leads to MISS by definition. The doubled S is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
MISINTERPRET 12 letters - reading "Translate wrongly" literally points to MISINTERPRET. At 12 letters this is a long lane - place it early to unlock the maximum number of crossings.
