Thanks to Peg and Sue, my first thought today was the song Peggy Sue by Buddy Holly. Being a classic from the Rock’n’Roll era, it helped me guide me to the Green group – although I initially thought that I was looking for parts of a guitar, rather than the more general characteristics of string instruments.
The sharp projection that I had after making a mistake thinking that it was heckling, so I had peg instead of the spine before thinking that it had something to do with the hedgehogs – which was somehow correct.
My next mistake was to think that there was a group that was bound by the traming (Oh, irony) with May, Might and Wish. I had to stupidly add Sue and get “one” before seeing litigation verbs. A test and error case.
How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.

What is NYT connections?
Nyt Connections is one of the many increasingly popular puns produced by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four elements that share something in common, and each group has a different level of difficulty: green is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite hard and generally very difficult.
On the positive side, you do not technically need to resolve the last, because you can respond to it by an elimination process. In addition, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little breathing margin.
However, it is a little more involved than something like Wordle, and there are a lot of opportunities so that the game makes you trip with towers. For example, pay attention to homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.
It is playable for free via the NYT games site on the desktop or mobile.
