Word Lanes Level 10217 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 10217, part of the Levels 10201-10300 block. Level 10217 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
SHAVER 6 letters - "Buzzy electric razor" is a straight definition, and SHAVER is the word that matches. It ties with TENNIS for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
FLAYING 7 letters - the present participle ending narrows the options - "Flogging or lashing of skin" leads to FLAYING. EVIDENT in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
TENNIS 6 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Game played by Serena Williams and Rafael Nadal" asks for more than one, and TENNIS fits. The doubled N is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
HANUKKAH 8 letters - reading "Jewish Festival of Lights in November or December" literally points to HANUKKAH. It ties with HANGOVER for the longest lane in Level 10217 at 8 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
HANGOVER 8 letters - "Next-day sickness from overindulging on alcohol" is a straight definition, and HANGOVER is the word that matches. It begins with H and ends with R; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
EVIDENT 7 letters - the clue "Obvious, no need to say it" describes EVIDENT directly. It begins with E and ends with T; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
TAPEWORM 8 letters - "Parasite, flat worm, looks like a tapemeasure" leads to TAPEWORM by definition. It begins with T and ends with M; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
CORGAN 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: CORGAN completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with C and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
