Word Lanes Level 401 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 401, part of the Levels 401-500 block. Level 401 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 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
CREWCUT 7 letters - "50s military male hair style" is a straight definition, and CREWCUT is the word that matches. It ties with ICEBERG for the longest lane in Level 401 at 7 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
PLEDGE 6 letters - the clue "Furniture polish brand with promising name" describes PLEDGE directly. DECIDE in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
DECIDE 6 letters - "Make a choice" leads to DECIDE by definition. It begins with D and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
ICEBERG 7 letters - reading "One of them sank the Titanic" literally points to ICEBERG. It begins with I and ends with G; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
ASHIVER 7 letters - "Overcome by shaking and trembling" is a straight definition, and ASHIVER is the word that matches. It begins with A and ends with R; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
MARX 4 letters - the clue "Revolutionary German economist Karl" describes MARX directly. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
TERMS 5 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "School periods with holidays at either end" asks for more than one, and TERMS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
APOLLO 6 letters - reading "Son of Zeus and Leto, born on the isle of Delos" literally points to APOLLO. The doubled L is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
