Dicas e respostas do NYT Connections de hoje – Ajuda para 27 de maio, nº 351 –

Need the answers for the May 27 New York Times Connections puzzle? To me, Wordle is more of a vocabulary test, but Connections is more of a brainteaser. You’re given 16 words and asked to put them into four groups that are somehow connected. Sometimes they’re obvious, but game editor Wyna Liu knows how to trick you by using words that can fit into more than one group. And do you also play Wordle? We’ve got today’s Wordle answer and hints too. We’ve also got some tips for Strands, a new game from the Times that’s still in beta. Playing is easy. Winning is hard. Look at the 16 words and mentally assign them to related groups of four. Click on the four words you think go together. The groups are coded by color, though you don’t know what goes where until you see the answers. The yellow group is the easiest, then green, then blue, and purple is the toughest. Look at the words carefully, and think about related terms. Sometimes the connection has to do with just a part of the word. Once, four words were grouped because each started with the name of a rock band, including “Rushmore” and “Journeyman.”

Here are four hints for the groupings in today’s Connections puzzle, ranked from the easiest, yellow group to the tough (and sometimes bizarre) purple group.

• Hint para o grupo amarelo: Faça a ligação.
• Hint para o grupo verde: Rolar, Rover.
• Hint para o grupo azul: Símbolos musicais.
• Hint para o grupo roxo: Fe na tabela periódica.

Yellow group: Agency in decision making.

Green group: Dog commands.

Blue group: Kinds of notes.

Purple group: ____ iron.
