NYT TODAY Connections (Game # 678) – Answers
The answers to today’s connections, the game # 678, are…
- Yellow: spoken presentation Address, conference, speech, speak
- Green: Adjectives for a desert Dry, hot, sandy, vast
- Blue: dog breeds, informally Bully, chow, gold, laboratory
- Purple: represented by three -digit numbers Cannabis, devil, intro class, James Bond
- My note: Hard
- My score: 2 errors
Today was a day when I got three in each group (well, apart from purple of course) and I took a chance on the fourth each time.
For the spoken presentation, I originally had the intro instead of the address. Then, for the adjectives for a desert, I thought we were looking for words that describe a beach, so I went with Golden rather than vast.
This is where my mistakes ended, but I still had trouble getting the last dog’s breed. Bully, Chow and Lab were locked up but the fourth escaped me – so I played with Golden.
Meanwhile, I had no idea that cannabis was represented by a number, even if I should have seen the model with James Bond (007), Devil (666) and Intro Class (101).

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.
