Word Lanes Level 2098 Answers
13 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 2098, part of the Levels 2001-2100 block. Level 2098 contains 13 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
DEAN 4 letters - "1950s rebellious film star James" is a straight definition, and DEAN is the word that matches. At just 4 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.
AIL 3 letters - AIL is a short, common word - the clue "Afflict or trouble" gives it away with a straight definition. It ties with GPA for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
OBEYED 6 letters - the past tense ending narrows the options - "Followed orders" leads to OBEYED. SKINOF in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
GPA 3 letters - GPA is a short, common word - the clue "Gross point average, initialism" 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.
HOUSEHOLD 9 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: HOUSEHOLD completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It is the longest answer in Level 2098, so solving it first exposes the most crossing letters.
SKINOF 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: SKINOF completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with S and ends with F; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
NIL 3 letters - NIL is a short, common word - the clue "Nothing, zilch, zero" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with N and ends with L; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
CRISP 5 letters - reading "One potato chip, in the UK" literally points to CRISP. It begins with C and ends with P; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
DOWN 4 letters - "Opposite of up" is a straight definition, and DOWN is the word that matches. It begins with D and ends with N; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
TEE 3 letters - TEE is a short, common word - the clue "Plastic rest a golf ball is hit from" gives it away with a straight definition. The doubled E is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
ATA 3 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: ATA completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with A and ends with A; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
NFL 3 letters - NFL is a short, common word - the clue "Sports league that Tom Brady plays in" gives it away with a straight definition. It begins with N and ends with L; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
