ForbesToday’s NYT ‘Connections’ tips and answers for Sunday, November 3By means of Kris Holt

Hey, everyone! Welcome to the start of a new week. I hope you are well rested and ready to go. I’m sure nothing major will happen in the world in the next few days that we need to worry about!

Today NYT Connections hints and answers for monday november 4th are coming soon.

Play connections

Connections is a free, popular New York Times daily word game. Every day you get a new puzzle at midnight. You can play on the NYT website or Games app.

You will be shown a grid of 16 words. Your job is to divide them into four groups of four by discovering the connections between them. The groups can be things like clickable items, names for study participants, or words preceded by a body part.

There is only one solution to each puzzle, and you have to be careful when it comes to words that fit into more than one category. You can play the words in any order so you might see the connections between them.

Each group has a color code. The yellow group is usually the easiest to figure out, blue and green fall in the middle, and the purple group is usually the most difficult. The purple group often uses puns.

Select four words that you think go together and press Send. If you make a guess and you’re wrong, you lose a life. When you’re close to the right group, you might see a message saying you’re just one word away from the right group, but you still need to figure out which one to swap.

If you make four mistakes, the game is over. Let’s make sure this doesn’t happen with some tips and, if you’re really struggling, today’s information Connections answers. As with Word and other similar games, it’s easy to share results with your friends on social media and group chats.

If you have a NYT All Access or Games subscription, you can access the Connections archive. This includes every previous game of Connectionsso you can go back and play the games you missed.

Apart from the first 60 or so games, you should be able to find my hints for each grid via Google if you need them! Just click here and add the date of the game for which you need clues or the answers to the search query.

🟨🟨🟨🟨

CANT was a real giveaway for the purples, so my eyes darted around the grid to find three other words that would fit the bill and presented them through gritted teeth. With ID (‘I should’ rather than the impulsive part of our psyche) left out of the equation, the green views were clear.

I could then see the blues, but accidentally guessed a group of CONSOLE, WARDROBE, VANITY and OUTFIT. Sigh. I corrected my mistake and was then booked for the win.

PS I’m trying to drink more water (I bought a smart water bottle to help with that). I also try to avoid tea or coffee for the first few hours I’m awake. So I look elsewhere for something to kickstart my day, and a loud song that gets me moving seems to be the answer. Here’s a favorite of those:
