Word Lanes Level 240 Answers
9 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 240, part of the Levels 201-300 block. Level 240 contains 9 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
GRIFFITH 8 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: GRIFFITH completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The doubled F is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
DATED 5 letters - the past tense ending narrows the options - "Assessed the exact age of something" leads to DATED. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
VALUING 7 letters - the present participle ending narrows the options - "Assessing worth" leads to VALUING. It opens with an uncommon V, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
HENWEN 6 letters - reading "Celtic fertility goddess in form of a magical sow" literally points to HENWEN. It begins with H and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
COLLINS 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Joan, star reborn in the 1980s as Alexis Colby" asks for more than one, and COLLINS fits. The doubled L is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
CHIPPED 7 letters - the past tense ending narrows the options - "Polish that has flaked off" leads to CHIPPED. The doubled P is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
VERWOERD 8 letters - "South African PM assassinated in 1966" leads to VERWOERD by definition. GRIFFITH in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
IMPEACH 7 letters - reading "To remove a high official after misconduct" literally points to IMPEACH. It begins with I and ends with H; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
SHOTGLASS 9 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "What drinkers use for small gulps of spirits" asks for more than one, and SHOTGLASS fits. It is the longest answer in Level 240, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
