Today’s Connections Category Hints
SEPTEMBER 06 #452
There are often several things that go into the logic you use to deduce what goes where in aConnectionspuzzle. This can make it difficult to figure out the final solution. If you just want some clues, here are four hints as to what the categories might be:
While these clues can nudge you in the right direction, sometimes you just want to know what the categories are. Here are all four category names:
NUMBER
TOTAL
If you are thinkingabout QUANTITY over quality, you will be looking at the final COUNT. NUMBERs would be the most important aspect to you, regardless of how well each of those numbers actually performs. The TOTAL AMOUNT of something is often quite important to getting that bottom line, but oftentimes the quality does very much matter.
EVENT
MATTER
If you arelooking at a specific incident, these are the words you might use to describe it. AFFAIR is often seen as something negative, and it usually is, but at its core, it is just an incident that happens. Incident itself comes with negative connotations a lot of times, but EVENT is a great synonym for it that just means it is something that happened that has more significance than usual. A rare MATTER, if you will.
Wordle History: Today’s Answer & All Past Words
Wordle is a simple daily word game that has taken the internet by storm. With only 6 chances to get the right answer, players may need a little help.
CATALOG
LETTER
This one felt the easiest to me again, which is slightly odd that it was two blue categories in a row. However, seeing CARD and LETTER together made me think it had to do with mail or gifts, and BILL, well, fit the bill.
That made it feel pretty clear thatit was about mail and not gifts, and searching the other words, the only thing that fit was a CATALOG. It would be nice if I got more of those instead of bills in the mail. At least they are fun for art.
GEYSER
SEASON
COIL and BOUNCE have very similar meanings, but figuring out that GEYSER and SEASON alsofit in with the “spring” themewas more difficult. Luckily, I did manage to clear all the other categories first, although I wasn’t sure if SEASON might belong with EPISODE. However, with all the other categories locked and loaded, it was a simple matter of clicking on them and pressing submit to finish the puzzle.
