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.
May 23rd was notably more difficult than yesterday.
I started with the word exploit.
It is pretty unambiguous and matched up nicely with both leverage and use.
The 4 words were Yellow, “Take Advantage Of.”
With that in mind, supper and yogurt were the only other words that could possibly fit together.
The category was named “Words Beginning with Greetings.”
Green was “Finished, As Time.”
The remaining words were city, cope, culture, and sports.
I didn’t make the connection between the words, but luckily I didn’t need to.
The Blue category was “Newspaper Desks.”
