A rare day for me without mysteries, doing things correctly by hurting them (as in the right words, no idea of reason) or nit, by choosing categories in a boring way.
My only doubt was with the tasks for a student, which I temporarily thought about physical training and included the game instead of the mission.
Meanwhile, I would have guessed almost, close, not quite and warm describing to be close to something, rather than encouraging the answers in a guessing game, having forgotten everything about the childhood games to which they applied.

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.
