NYT Connections today (game #646) - the answers (Image credit: New York Times) The answers to today's Connections, game #646, are YELLOW: EXCEPTIONAL REMARKABLE, SINGULAR, SPECIAL, UNIQUE GREEN: GERMAN WORDS ANGST, DIE, KINDER, WURST BLUE: PLURAL ANIMALS IDENTICAL TO THEIR SINGULAR FORMS DEER, SHEEP, SHRIMP, SQUID PURPLE: PLURAL WORDS THAT ARE VERY DIFFERENT FROM THEIR SINGULAR FORMS DICE, LICE, MICE, OXEN My rating: Hard My score: 2 mistakes Maddening is the only way to describe todays Connections. I roared through the yellow and green groups, at first thinking this couldnt be as straightforward as just being GERMAN WORDS could it? EXCEPTIONAL was equally unchallenging. But then I hit the wall. Before I finally realized the connections were plurals, I initially thought it must be something unique to the animals, so I put SHRIMP, SQUID, LICE and MICE together, thinking they all had flexible bodies or something. Yes, fair enough, I was reaching. Then, when I realized it was about linguistics, I still didnt fully get it and included LICE instead of DEER. As infuriating as this was (Id argue OXEN is not that different to Ox) I admire how SINGULAR and DIE (the singular of DICE) were also in the puzzle. How did you do today?

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. ====================================================================== Link to news story: https://www.techradar.com/gaming/nyt-connections-today-answers-hints-18-march- 2025 --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet Technology News (1337:1/100) .
