Dicas e respostas do NYT Connections de hoje para 13 de agosto, #429 –

Need the answers for the 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. Read on for today’s Connections hints and answers. Want more game answers? Here’s the Wordle answer for today, and here’s the answer for Strands.

• The theme is stated. The four answers are said, spoke, told and voiced.
• The theme is nickname. The four answers are designation, handle, moniker and sobriquet.
• The theme is obvious. The four answers are clear, marked, pronounced and striking.

The theme is ___house (that aren’t houses). The four answers are porter, power, rough and wheel. 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.”
