The groups for today’s puzzle are color-coded, with clues like “One and only” for Yellow, “Say mean words” for Green, “Fill up” for Blue, and “Blank [something you put things on?]” for Purple.

In my opinion, today’s puzzle was easy, and I was able to quickly identify the outlier words to solve the puzzle efficiently. The key is to focus on words that have fewer meanings or possibilities, like DIESEL, to make connections with other words. Feel free to share your score with me via email.
If you’re unfamiliar with NYT Connections, it is a word game by the New York Times where you need to find groups of four items that share something in common. The game offers different difficulty levels, and you can make up to four mistakes. It’s a bit more complex than other word games like Wordle, so watch out for tricks like homophones that could make it challenging.
Overall, NYT Connections is a fun and engaging word game that you can play for free on the NYT Games site. Give it a try and see how well you can connect the words in today’s puzzle.
