Word Lanes Level 2978 Answers

8 clues solved and verified

This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 2978, part of the Levels 2901-3000 block. Level 2978 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 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 2901-3000 index, open the complete level list, or read the Tips for tactics that work on every tier.

Word-by-Word Breakdown

EXCESS 6 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "A surplus or an overabundance of something" asks for more than one, and EXCESS fits. It ties with BEAUTY for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.

BEAUTY 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: BEAUTY completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. EXCESS in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.

HOOVERDAM 9 letters - "Boulder Dam was renamed this in 1947" leads to HOOVERDAM by definition. It ties with FORGETYOU for the longest lane in Level 2978 at 9 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.

EXTEND 6 letters - reading "Elongate, lengthen" literally points to EXTEND. It begins with E and ends with D; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

SHIELD 6 letters - "Fighting tool to defend blows" is a straight definition, and SHIELD is the word that matches. It begins with S and ends with D; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

FRANKIE 7 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: FRANKIE completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with F and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

FORGETYOU 9 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so FORGETYOU goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 9 letters. No visible gap in the lane, so count the full 9 boxes before guessing.

ADMIRER 7 letters - reading "This secret person might leave a note or gift" literally points to ADMIRER. It begins with A and ends with R; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
