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.

"IN YOUR DREAMS"

Green Group (Easy)

Look for a shared family, type, or common phrase that is one step beyond the obvious meanings.

SENSIBLE

Blue Group (Medium)

Think more broadly: titles, culture, proper nouns, and specialized labels can all be fair game.

TYPOGRAPHICAL SYMBOLS

Purple Group (Hardest)

Think of entertainment titles and named works, not only dictionary definitions.
