Word Lanes Level 5217 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 5217, part of the Levels 5201-5300 block. Level 5217 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.

Word-by-Word Breakdown
LAGOON 6 letters - "Body of water separated from the sea by a reef" is a straight definition, and LAGOON is the word that matches. It ties with MIDDLE for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
PROFITS 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Business returns net" asks for more than one, and PROFITS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
PORTUGAL 8 letters - "Country directly to the west of Spain" leads to PORTUGAL by definition. It begins with P and ends with L; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
MIDDLE 6 letters - reading "Finger adjacent to ring finger, not the pinkie" literally points to MIDDLE. The doubled D is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
MUKLUK 6 letters - "Inuit sealskin boot" is a straight definition, and MUKLUK is the word that matches. LAGOON in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
SPRECKELS 9 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: SPRECKELS completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It is the longest answer in Level 5217, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
VACANCY 7 letters - "Open position, hotel room available" leads to VACANCY by definition. It opens with an uncommon V, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
FORGIVE 7 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: FORGIVE 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.
