It sounds easy, but it isn’tConnections categories can be almost anything, and they’re usually quite specific.
If you need a hand getting the answers, we’ve got you covered.
What Is Connections?
Connections is a game from the New York Times.
The objective is simple: sort 16 words into groups of 4.
Each group of words will be connected by some common idea or theme.
That common element could be anything.
Sometimes they’re references to economics, other times they reference fairy tales.
There is no telling what sort of association there will be between words.
Once you’re confident you understand the connection, select 4 words, then hit “Submit.”
You have only four attempts in total, so don’t be too guess-happy.
The word that jumped out first was hogwash.
It is an expression that means “Nonsense!”
or to express disbelief.
With that in mind, both crock and bunk were easy to add to the category.
The fourth word, however, was a bit harder.
Together, they were the Yellow category, “Balderdash.”
That was the Purple category.
Baton, hurdle, and pole are all equipment you might use for track and field.
Of the remaining words, only hammer really fits.
The “Track and Field Equipment” group of words made up the Green category.
The last four words have a pretty straightforward connection too: satanic imagery.
The Blue category was “Parts of a Devil Costume.”
