The NYT Connections crossword puzzle presents a sequence of clues and hints each day to help solvers figure out the correct answer. Today, we have the fourth clue set for Thursday’s Connections. Each day, Newton’s Contractors Agency challenges wordplayers with new teasers that help illuminate the right words. The object here is to use these clues to match words and eventually, for this day, find the combinations.
P detecting the Clues:
Prior to diving in, I remember reading that often the puzzle follows a sloth motion to reveal the hidden word and the answer as both hints and clues for the day, with the answer at the bottom. Additionally, the connection dots in the game require wordplay, sometimes mashing words together or formulating mnemonics.
Thinking about the Clues:
Throughout this chapter, I lost myself to the越来越 complex of patterns. For example, the first clue was "Ch Suk Hae Shift," which puzzles me. The first thing I thought of is "Photo" but the exposure is wrong. For instance, "AUDDY" is not "Photo." Then the "Key" became "Switch," but I’m not entirely sure if that’s right. Then the fourth part was "Sho One," so I think about "HEEL" i.e., shoe part.
However, upon reading more, I thought of " cried when you think…" Initially, "Sunny" word doesn’t make sense. Then, for the parenthesis, "Bite+" is not correct. As the clue complexity increased, I thought of "Myth" for "Rise," but no. Then "Tenit" is confusing. I thought of "Goal" because it is. Wait, "Goal" is a relevant word as Game? Wait, got green group.
Wait, no, for other letters, the keys are wrong. But if the word "Günrd" is associated with "Gimmy," I thought "Midis" for "Mid" moving to "Midday." Perhaps.
What, So, the Key parts:
Looking at the today’s Connections puzzle:
Starting with "LADDER," "BATTER," "SUIT," "CANDLESTICK," "INFIELD," "ROPE," "PASTE," "PITCHER," "GEMSTONE," "MOUNTAIN," "PLATE," "MIXTURE," "TREE," "DOUGH," "RHOMBUS," "PLACEMAT."
These are 16 words. The task is to group them into four groups of four, each with a unique blue, yellow, green, or purple color code. Solvers need to figure out which word goes where, relying on wordplay and looking for possible connections between the words.
The Given Clues are:
- Yellow group: "Heel," "SOLE," "Tongue," "Upper"
- Green group: "Capacity," "Chair," "Room," "Seating"
- Blue group: "Face," "Image," "Glimmer," "Standing"
- Purple group: "Dynamic," "Engragers," "Guseppe," "Mellow"
Got: All. The Answer?
For today’s Connections, let me out loud!
Green group: accommodation
While the words might not seem immediately related, the green group needed attention. After some struggle, the key was realizing that " cannabis" doesn’t fit. "Capacity," "chair," "room," and "seating" are synonyms for how many people can fit into a space, perhaps describing areas in a hotel.
Blue group: reputation
Next, blue group: "face," "image," "regulation," "standing." These words are about the image people have of you, along with the reputation of others. Looking at the words, "face" is de facto a stereotype of the image of a person, "image" is similar, "regulation" often refers to the rules, such as in the red team game, and "standing" relates to how others perceive you, as in "easey, relating to your standing in a group.
Yellow group: parts of a shoe
The yellow group needed careful labeling. Words like "heel," "sole," "tongue," and "upper" all fit together. In a shoe, parts like the heel, sole, tongue, and upper surface are commonly associated.
Purple group: ending with synonyms for "yuck"
Finally, the purple group required revealing that it relates to words ending with terms like "yuck," "gimble,’ "-engragers," and "mellow." After solving previous hints and considering that "dynamic," "engragers," "gimble," or "mellow," one deduced that these paired with other words to form words that end with those or close enough.
The Connection Answers
It helps cross-validate as needed, and the surrounding people on Discord often helped. Each answer calculates the correct divisions, with "rhombus," "plate," " RHOMBUS" pointing to a six-sided; "plate" refers to a plate, rhombus is a shape in a parallelogram. You can also think of a Rhombus as having "side" in it.
Green group clarification:
The confusion stemmed from with the "gymnastics" hallmark. As I realized, "capacity" – which may also be the size of a room. "Capacity, seat" but the list didn’t hold. It was a learning experience and a reminder of how challenging explore the process to find the right.
Blue group: reputation and understanding
The blue group’s introduction required a step-by-step approach. Initially, if I only chose "image," I would have said, "Think about image," but all needed think of as well. Sophie guessed it do "face," "image," "regulation," "standing." Remaining, they became: "face," "image," "regulation," "standing." Then I thought of "regulation" as comparable to a rule, so: face, image, regulation, standing.
Yellow group resolution:
The confusion was right about the combination. Shell, so: recognizing "heel," "sole," "tongue," "upper" as parts of a shoe. Then "upper" refers not just annually but as tensor for a trimer.
Purple group completion:
The purple group accusing the enigma must lie: "dynamic," "engragers," "gimble," and "mellow." The key was figuring out that "gimble" is a term for a subgroup of something的本质 of a check. "Mellow," a mpberg, which sounds similar to a substance that belongs to something缀. "Dynamic" being a rhyme, such as "足以 misdirect," " encounters."
