Word Lanes Level 696 Answers
11 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 696, part of the Levels 601-700 block. Level 696 contains 11 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
COD 3 letters - COD is a short, common word - the clue "A variety of bony, cold-water marine fish" gives it away with a straight definition. It ties with RUG for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
RUG 3 letters - RUG is a short, common word - the clue "Carpet" gives it away with a straight definition. At just 3 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.
CADY 4 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: CADY completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. At just 4 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.
NURSE 5 letters - reading "Florence Nightingale was one" literally points to NURSE. LINEN in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
LINEN 5 letters - "Lightweight summer fabric" is a straight definition, and LINEN is the word that matches. It begins with L and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
WYN 3 letters - WYN is a short, common word - the clue "Old English letter equivalent to "w"" gives it away with a straight definition. It opens with an uncommon W, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
GEOLOGISTS 10 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "People who study the Earth" asks for more than one, and GEOLOGISTS fits. It is the longest answer in Level 696, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
OAT 3 letters - OAT is a short, common word - the clue "Porridge grain" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with O and ends with T; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
SIN 3 letters - SIN is a short, common word - the clue "There are seven deadly ones (singular)" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with S and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
CASHEWS 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Tropical nuts shaped like kidneys" asks for more than one, and CASHEWS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
CAB 3 letters - CAB is a short, common word - the clue "Yellow paid transportation synonymous with NYC" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with C and ends with B; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
