Word Lanes Level 1157 Answers
9 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 1157, part of the Levels 1101-1200 block. Level 1157 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
CLOUD 5 letters - "A cumulonimbus is this item" is a straight definition, and CLOUD is the word that matches. It begins with C and ends with D; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
ACRONYM 7 letters - the clue "An abbreviation turned into word, like S.C.U.B.A." describes ACRONYM directly. ICELAND in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
TAXATION 8 letters - "Imposing a duty or levy to be paid to the state" leads to TAXATION by definition. It ties with WINGSPAN for the longest lane in Level 1157 at 8 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
WINGSPAN 8 letters - reading "Maximum extent across the arms of a plane" literally points to WINGSPAN. It opens with an uncommon W, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
SENT 4 letters - "Money used in Estonia, one hundredth of a kroon" is a straight definition, and SENT is the word that matches. It ties with COWL for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
CAYMAN 6 letters - the clue "Porsche model named after an alligator" describes CAYMAN directly. It begins with C and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
ICELAND 7 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: ICELAND completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with I and ends with D; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
HOPKINS 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Sir Anthony, star of the film Howards End" asks for more than one, and HOPKINS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
COWL 4 letters - "The hood on a monk's habit" is a straight definition, and COWL is the word that matches. At just 4 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.
