    NYT Connections today (game #784) – the answers

    The answers to today’s Connections, game #784, are…

    • YELLOW: EMULATE COPY, ECHO, MIRROR, PARROT
    • BLUE: MANIA BUG, CRAZE, FAD, FEVER
    • GREEN: SPORTS CRICKET, GOLF, POLO, SQUASH
    • PURPLE: SINGLE ANIMAL IN A CREATIVELY SPELLED BAND NAMEBEETLE, BIRD, GORILLA, MONKEY

    • My rating: Hard
    • My score: 2 mistakes

    As someone who spent 20 years as a music journalist I’m annoyed that I didn’t see that SINGLE ANIMAL IN A CREATIVELY SPELLED BAND NAME referred to The Beatles, The Byrds, Gorillaz and The Monkees. 

    Instead, I was too busy falling into the very obvious trap of thinking that there was a group connecting Volkswagen cars – POLO, BEETLE and GOLF are definitely models and I took a guess that ECHO was too. It isn’t.

    My other mistake was putting together PARROT, BUG, CRICKET and beetle, thinking it was something to do with the Pixar movie A Bug’s Life (my memory is sketchy!). 


    Yesterday’s NYT Connections answers (Saturday, August 2, game #783)

    • YELLOW: ATTACH WITH ADHESIVE ADHERE, AFFIX, GLUE, STICK
    • BLUE: BOWLING RESULTS FOUL, SPARE, SPLIT, STRIKE
    • GREEN: POLITE TERMS FOR SEX COMMERCE, CONGRESS, INTIMACY, RELATIONS
    • PURPLE: CONTRONYMS (WORDS THAT CAN MEAN OPPOSITE THINGS) CLEAVE, GARNISH, OVERSIGHT, SANCTION

    What is NYT Connections?

    NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually very difficult.

    On the plus side, you don’t technically need to solve the final one, as you’ll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What’s more, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.

    It’s a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.

    It’s playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
