Connections spoiler warning
Every answer is available below, but hints, categories, and words stay covered until you choose to reveal them.
Yellow Group (Easiest)
Start with the most direct everyday meanings. This set usually has the cleanest shared idea.
HOLD ONTO, AS A FEELING
Green Group (Easy)
Each word can name a kind, type, or version of one broader idea.
KINDS OF FROGS
Blue Group (Medium)
Think more broadly: titles, culture, proper nouns, and specialized labels can all be fair game.
NBC SITCOM SURNAMES
Purple Group (Hardest)
Try adding, placing, or pairing the same short word with each answer instead of reading the words alone.
