The answers to today's Connections, game #832, are YELLOW: CAR BRANDS DODGE, FORD, LINCOLN, RAM GREEN: BIT OF SPORTS BAR FARE CHIP, DIP, FRY, WING BLUE: N.H.L. TEAM MEMBER DUCK, FLYER, SENATOR, STAR PURPLE: SKY___ DIVE, LARK, ROCKET, SCRAPER My rating: Hard My score: Perfect

Connections loves singular versions of things we are used to seeing as
plurals and today we go two groups of them with BIT OF SPORTS BAR FARE and N.H.L. TEAM MEMBER.

Sadly, I wasnt familiar enough with the hockey teams in the blue group to
take a risk, but knowledge of bar snack menus is universal.

My one mistake was in including SENATOR among the CAR BRANDS. I incorrectly thought that it was a short-lived 1980s company, but I think I was getting it confused with a Chevrolet car model that was made during this period. For
such a tricky round one mistake isnt bad. Yesterday's NYT Connections answers (Friday, September 19, game #831) YELLOW: EVALUATE GRADE, RANK, RATE, SCORE GREEN: EXHIBIT NERVOUSNESS BLUSH, FIDGET, PACE, SWEAT BLUE: THINGS THAT CAN RUN, ANNOYINGLY DYE, MASCARA, NOSE, STOCKINGS PURPLE: PAPER ___ CLIP, TIGER, TOWEL, TRAIL 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.
