Shiva And Taxi Driver Meaning In NYT Connections For Today

NYT Connection is a daily puzzle that challenges players to sort 16 words into four groups based on their connections.

Group the words into four color based categories, with yellow being the easiest and purple the hardest.

In the October 2 puzzle, adjusting words like “Shiva“ and “Taxi Driver” within any group proved challenging in NYT Connections due to uncommon meanings.

Solutions For Today’s NYT Connection (October 2)

Start the puzzle by carefully analyzing each word, looking for possible connections or themes that link four words together.

You’ll quickly discover your first-word set, the Yellow group called “put on the line.” It has words like Bet, Chance, Gamble, and Risk.

You can also quickly solve the second group of words by grouping Cube, Dice, Julienne, and Slice together.

This will form the Green group named “Use a kitchen knife” and it describes the various purposes of a knife.

Meaning Of Taxi Driver In NYT Connections

In the 479th edition of the puzzle, the words “taxi driver” refer to the famous Robert De Niro movie.

This fits perfectly with other movies like Casino, Heat, and Joker, in which Robert De Niro plays a role.

Taxi Driver will complete the third group for today, the Blue group named “Robert De Niro films.“

Meaning Of Shiva In NYT Connections

Even in the final moment, we still can’t figure out the common theme shared by the last four remaining words.

We link the four remaining words together to reveal the common theme they share.

This completed the final group, the Purple Group, with the theme “distinctive number of arms (or lack thereof).“

The final theme contains words like octopus, Shiva, slot machine, and Venus De Milo in the group.

The word “Shiva” refers to one of the primary deities in Hinduism, meaning a central figure in the religion, which fits perfectly with the group’s theme, as artists uniquely depict Lord Shiva with four arms.
