Word Lanes Level 7940 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 7940, part of the Levels 7901-8000 block. Level 7940 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
CLOTHESHORSE 12 letters - "Folding frame on which wet laundry is hung to dry" is a straight definition, and CLOTHESHORSE is the word that matches. It ties with TOTALECLIPSE for the longest lane in Level 7940 at 12 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
PEARLHARBOR 11 letters - the clue "Hawaiian lagoon attacked by the Japanese" describes PEARLHARBOR directly. At 11 letters this is a long lane - place it early to unlock the maximum number of crossings.
DEMME 5 letters - "Jonathan, director of The Silence of the Lambs" leads to DEMME by definition. The doubled M is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
SUMERIAN 8 letters - reading "People of early Mesopotamian civilisation" literally points to SUMERIAN. It begins with S and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
MAROON 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: MAROON completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The doubled O is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
GANZ 4 letters - the clue "Swiss actor Bruno, who starred in Downfall in 2004" describes GANZ directly. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
TORRES 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: TORRES completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The doubled R is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
TOTALECLIPSE 12 letters - reading "When the sun's light is fully obscured by the Moon" literally points to TOTALECLIPSE. At 12 letters this is a long lane - place it early to unlock the maximum number of crossings.
