Word Lanes Level 266 Answers
8 clues solved and verified
This page gives the complete, verified answers for Word Lanes Level 266, part of the Levels 201-300 block. Level 266 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
JEW 3 letters - JEW is a short, common word - the clue "A follower of Judaism" gives it away with a straight definition. It is the shortest lane here; leave it until the crossings make it obvious.
DISQUISITION 12 letters - the clue "An elaborate essay on a particular subject" describes DISQUISITION directly. It ties with BREATHALYZER for the longest lane in Level 266 at 12 letters, so either one opens up the most crossings.
WASH 4 letters - "Clean with liquid" leads to WASH by definition. It opens with an uncommon W, which makes it a strong anchor for the lanes it crosses.
TIMER 5 letters - reading "Countdown device" literally points to TIMER. It begins with T and ends with R; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
BREATHALYZER 12 letters - "Inebriation detector" is a straight definition, and BREATHALYZER is the word that matches. At 12 letters this is a long lane - place it early to unlock the maximum number of crossings.
FIXATE 6 letters - the clue "Obsess, focus on" describes FIXATE directly. It begins with F and ends with E; use any crossing letters you already have to confirm it.
BIRTHSTONE 10 letters - "Opal is October's" leads to BIRTHSTONE by definition. At 10 letters this is a long lane - place it early to unlock the maximum number of crossings.
SUNALSORISES 12 letters - Word Lanes strips the space, so SUNALSORISES goes into the lane as one unbroken run of 12 letters. The trailing S is often the first letter a crossing clue hands you.
