Word Lanes Level 2600 Answers

GILLIANFLYNN 12 letters - "Author of Gone Girl" is a straight definition, and GILLIANFLYNN is the word that matches. It ties with SAINTPATRICK for the longest lane in Level 2600 at 12 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.

FRODO 5 letters - the clue "Baggins, Middle Earth hobbit and relative of Bilbo" describes FRODO directly. NEPAL in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.

FOSSILFUELS 11 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Coal, oil, gas are types of these energy sources" asks for more than one, and FOSSILFUELS fits. The doubled S is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.

NEPAL 5 letters - reading "Country bordered by China and India" literally points to NEPAL. It begins with N and ends with L; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

SAINTPATRICK 12 letters - "Irishman who has a day on March 17th, every year" is a straight definition, and SAINTPATRICK is the word that matches. At 12 letters this is a long lane - place it early to unlock the maximum number of crossings.

TONGUE 6 letters - the clue "Primary organ of taste" describes TONGUE directly. It begins with T and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.

USHERS 6 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "They escort cinema-goers to their seats" asks for more than one, and USHERS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.

EARS 4 letters - reading "They're affected by labyrinthitis" literally points to EARS. At just 4 letters, it is a quick fill - the crossing letters from longer answers should confirm it.

ORC 3 letters - ORC is a short, common word - the clue "World of Warcraft's Mankrik species" gives it away with a straight definition. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
