Word Lanes Level 8389 Answers
12 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 8389, part of the Levels 8301-8400 block. Level 8389 contains 12 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
PUN 3 letters - PUN is a short, common word - the clue ""Denial ain't just a river in Egypt" is an example" gives it away with a straight definition. It ties with POT for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
POT 3 letters - POT is a short, common word - the clue "A watched one never boils" 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.
MIC 3 letters - MIC is a short, common word - the clue "Device often dropped after a stage performance" gives it away with a straight definition. PUN in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
PRIX 4 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: PRIX 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.
BECK 4 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: BECK completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with B and ends with K; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
WIVES 5 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Plural of the word wife" asks for more than one, and WIVES fits. It opens with an uncommon W, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
SAVING 6 letters - the present participle ending narrows the options - "Putting away money" leads to SAVING. It begins with S and ends with G; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
SYMBOLIZING 11 letters - the present participle ending narrows the options - "Representing, standing in for" leads to SYMBOLIZING. It is the longest answer in Level 8389, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
LOX 3 letters - LOX is a short, common word - the clue "Smoked salmon that tops a bagel" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with L and ends with X; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
TROUBLES 8 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: TROUBLES completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
LEY 3 letters - LEY is a short, common word - the clue "These magic lines often show up in fiction" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with L and ends with Y; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
