Word Lanes Level 973 Answers
9 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 973, part of the Levels 901-1000 block. Level 973 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
ACTIVITY 8 letters - "A project to keep you busy" is a straight definition, and ACTIVITY is the word that matches. It ties with OVERTIME for the longest lane in Level 973 at 8 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
SERPENT 7 letters - the clue "Another word for a snake" describes SERPENT directly. BARISTA in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
OVERTIME 8 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so OVERTIME goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 8 letters. No visible gap in the lane, so count the full 8 boxes before guessing.
TEENS 5 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "People of ages 13-19" asks for more than one, and TEENS fits. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
BARISTA 7 letters - "Person who makes and serves caffeinated beverages" is a straight definition, and BARISTA is the word that matches. It begins with B and ends with A; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
COZYCONE 8 letters - the clue "Pointy motel in Pixar's Cars" describes COZYCONE directly. It begins with C and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
BILLING 7 letters - the present participle ending narrows the options - "Sending out an invoice to a customer" leads to BILLING. The doubled L is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
PARENTS 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "The helpful older readers of most picture books" asks for more than one, and PARENTS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
SEXISTS 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Those who discriminate on the basis of gender" asks for more than one, and SEXISTS fits. It begins with S and ends with S; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
