Word Lanes Level 9717 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 9717, part of the Levels 9701-9800 block. Level 9717 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
BADGUY 6 letters - "2019 song by Billie Eilish featuring Justin Bieber" is a straight definition, and BADGUY is the word that matches. It ties with BOURNE for the shortest lane here; wait for crossings before committing.
FININGS 7 letters - the plural form is the giveaway here - "Additions to wine to clarify it" asks for more than one, and FININGS fits. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
MATISSE 7 letters - "French painter of La Danse and The Blue Nude" leads to MATISSE by definition. The doubled S is a giveaway once one crossing lands on it.
KNOCKOFF 8 letters - reading "Imitation, fake goods" literally points to KNOCKOFF. It ties with BABUSHKA for the longest lane in Level 9717 at 8 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
BOURNE 6 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: BOURNE completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. BADGUY in this level is the same length, so check the crossing letters before you commit.
CHARLES 7 letters - the clue is a fill-in-the-blank: CHARLES completes the phrase the puzzle is looking for. It begins with C and ends with S; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
BABUSHKA 8 letters - "Polish grandmother" leads to BABUSHKA by definition. It begins with B and ends with A; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
QUIBBLE 7 letters - reading "To bicker or argue over minor points" literally points to QUIBBLE. It opens with an uncommon Q, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
