If you are struggling with today’s Connections puzzle, you are not alone and there are ways to help you get past it. There are a lot of various options to explore in this puzzle, which makes it hard when it comes to solidifying your guesses and not running out of them. However, there are ways to get around it, and you can get to the end of the puzzle without too much trouble by using our hints and tricks.
If you want a different kind of wordy puzzle, the NYT’s Spelling Bee puzzle might just be the one for you. It has cute honey bees, a few letters, and a cute aesthetic to help you put the words together quickly. You will have to come up with as many words as you can to get to the end of the puzzle. You will be scored on how many words you get, but if you happen to get all the possible words you will get a win.

If you need a few nudges, I have everything you need to get started on this puzzle. I would say its about a medium difficulty, at least for me, and I got thrown off at the end of the puzzle for a very silly reason looking back on it now. However, you can avoid my silly mistakes by learning from them, and I have four clues to help you get started without any spoilers:
- One category is a group of things that you would pull out for an event that happens every day in the evening
- One category is about four words that can all be modified with the same word
- One category is about four different kinds of invisible things that keep some very important things safe
- One category is about four different words that have been modified in the same way that previously shared a connection related to liquids

FORK |

PLATE |
If you are looking to impress your dinner guests, you will have to know where all of these things go. That does change by culture and tradition, as well as by how fancy you want to be. My grandma loves to pull out the fine china and put out a full table setting, and that’s probably why my brain connected these four things as quickly as it did. I have been lucky enough to experience a very fancy meal once as well, where the silverware was layered four deep on either side.

FLEW |
ROSE |
SHOT |
THRUST |
This one was where I started to get quite confused, particularly with ROSE and SHOT. I was one away from this one several times, but BOUNCE is where I was misled. I knew FLEW had to be in this one, but the rest of the words felt like a toss-up, and I’m still happy to include BOUNCE in this category under any other circumstances. If I had caught on to the purple category, I would have gotten it, but I didn’t.

DISK |
DRIVE |
I got this one first, and I was able to grab it up pretty fast. I saw DISK and that sent me on a hunt for words that could go with it. I thought about PLATE, but there wasn’t really anything else that fit that idea. Luckily, this category was fairly straightforward in a way not every blue category is. If you have had to store anything on a computer or phone, hopefully, this one looks pretty clear to you as well.

|---|---|---|---|

BOUNCE |
GALLEON |
PINOT |
QUARTZ |
This is where I felt very silly. PINOT and ROSE seemed to be a wine category for a moment, but there weren’t any other options. I also did not register that GALLEON was misspelled. I read it as “gallon” but I think that has to do with how often I have to read things written in British English. At this point, I just kind of ignore extra letters in words and that is very unhelpful for several different Connections puzzles.
