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?

June 29th Connections words.

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.

June 29th Connections words sorted into groups.

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.

So, I stuck them together just to see what happened.

As it worked out, the Yellow group was just “Homophones.”

They also mean something very similar, which is “Placed Down.”

Those 4 were in the Blue group.

Next, I went with couple (as a verb), which means to attach.

Green was “Connect.”

That left may, sun, wall, and wild in Purple.

As usual, saying them out loud helped figure out which word was missing.

May Flower, Sun Flower, Wall Flower, and Wild Flower!

All the words can take “Flower” at the end.

As you might expect, the Purple group was just “____ Flower.”
