NYT TODAY Connections (Game # 651) – Answers

The answers to today’s connections, the game # 651, are…
- Yellow: captivate Absorb, entry, grab, rivet
- Green: things with wings Plane, fairy, fly, hospital
- Blue: Words that modify “the watch” Pocket, intelligent, stop, wrist
- Purple: repeated words in “Miss Mary Mack” Back, black, buttons, Mack
- My note: Hard
- My score: 2 errors
A day of double meaning. I was so locked at the entrance being an opening to something that I did not come to mind that we were looking for the other definition, so I wasted a few errors trying to connect it to the fly and the buttons. When it did not work, I convinced myself that we were looking for ties, then fly again, pimples, rivet and in a trance of Mack confusion.
It all started so well too. The second I saw Smart and the wrist, I thought “to look”, although if we were playing a danger! Version of the connections I would never have answered the words that modify the “watch”.
According to Wikipedia, Miss Mary Mack is the most famous applauding song in the world, but I have never heard of it. Reading the rest of the words, apparently, Mary also liked to smoke her father’s pipe – and she was undoubtedly friend with a goose who drank wine and a monkey who chewed tobacco on the tram line.

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.
