NYT TODAY Connections (Game # 809) – Answers
The answers to today’s connections, the game # 809, are…
- Yellow: places to be trapped Net, Caisse Claire, tangle, Web
- Green: used for tea Cup, kettle, tea bag, water
- Blue: associated with hardness Diamond, nails, rock, steel
- Violet: ending with keyboard keys Cantab, cyberspace, icecaps, fortune
- My note: Hard
- My score: 1 error
I had an office work once in a team of eight British and an American and I will always remember the irritation of the latter after having done a tea race and discover the many tea manufacturing peccadillos of their colleagues: leave the tea sachet, put the milk first, put the last time as the milk.
Frankly, it is not surprising that coffee has exceeded tea as a favorite drink of the United Kingdom, it is so much simpler.
My obsession with personal tea helped me find tea fairly quickly, even if I temporarily thought that we were looking for drums with Caisse Claire, kettle and steel.
My error came by thinking that there was a group linked by words for the Internet with cyberspace, the net and the web. I added Cantab as fourth. I did not know what it meant, but I thought it was perhaps a version of the 1950s of the World Wide Web with people in the universities that discussed between them via computers of the houses. How bad I was.

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.
