Unraveling Today's NYT Connections: Hints and Answers for October 9
It's that delightful time again—Wednesday, the day when we dive into another exciting round of Connections , the popular word game from The New York Times. If you’re new to the game or a seasoned player, you’ll be glad to know there’s a new feature that’s just been rolled out: the Connections archive . Now, if you have a subscription to NYT Games or All Access, you can revisit past puzzles, track your progress, and analyze your performance across various games. It’s an exciting development for fans who want to hone their skills or simply enjoy previously released puzzles.
So, how does Connections work? Each day, the game presents players with a grid of 16 words that they must sort into four distinct groups of four. The connections can be anything from thematic similarities to quirky word associations, which adds an engaging twist to the challenge. Players must carefully examine the words, as some might fit into multiple categories, making the task both fun and thought-provoking. The game’s color-coded groups serve as a helpful guide, with the yellow group typically being the easiest, while the purple group often requires a more creative touch.
Today’s list of words includes: SPIN, JACKKNIFE, BUBBLES, PROGRESS, BUTTERCUP, FIZZ, BLOSSOM, PITCHFORK, MOJO, MATURE, FOAM, BOILERPLATE, WITHERSPOON, BILLBOARD, DEVELOP, and FROTH . If you’re feeling a bit stuck, don’t worry! Here are some hints to get you on the right track. The yellow group relates to something that results from fermentation, while the green group signifies growth. The blue group ties into music publications, and finally, the purple group hints at items associated with tableware.
Now, if you’re ready for a sneak peek at the categories, here they are:
