- Juror refers to a member of the jury, and in today’s NYT Connection it refers to 12 Jurors in a Jury.
- Paddle with the prefix dog refers to a swimming technique, typically taught in elementary school.

The 571st edition of NYT Connection provides a 4×4 grid of words, groups of which have similar themes.
Each category has a different difficulty level, with yellow being the simplest and purple being the most difficult.
While today’s difficulty is 2.8 out of 5, which is fairly average, words like Juror and Paddle left people wondering as they struggled to find the connection with other words.
Answers For Today’s NYT Connections With Words Meaning
After a brief look at today’s connections, the first words that struck a chord were Beat, Meter, Rhythm, and Clock.
Unfortunately, I was one step away from getting the green category. However, I quickly chose Beat, Meter, Rhythm, and Time and watched the green category “Candence” light up.
Without wasting a moment, I turned to the next category and picked Register and Juror as they associate with the Church.
However, I couldn’t have been more wrong as they belonged to two categories. As I struggled to piece the puzzle, the remaining words began making sense.
Juror Meaning in NYT Connections #571 With All Answers
Moving on into the game, I picked Catch, Clock, Notice, and Register, which formed the yellow category titled “Perceive.”
Still, I had eight words remaining, and there was no visible connection between them. With low hopes, I grouped Donut, Inch, Month, and Paddle, as they often associate with the number twelve.
I was right to guess the category, but I lost my life as I was a world away from success. Then I chose Donut, Inch, Juror, and Month and aced the blue category, “One In A Group Of Twelve.”
It turns out that a Juror, meaning in today’s NYT Connections, is a member of a jury, and in federal court, a Jury typically has 12 Jurors.
Similarly, a donut comes in a 12-piece box; 12 inches make a foot, and rightly so, 12 months make up a year.
Paddle Meaning And All Answers With Categories
With the final four words remaining, I was quite sure that they made up the purple group, but I wasn’t sure about their connection.
As I grouped the words Days, Paddle, Tag, and Tired, the purple category formed with the title “Dog ___.”
Finally, I understood that dog days refer to hot summer days, whereas a dog paddle is an elementary swimming technique.
Moreover, the Dog Tag was a tag worn by military personnel, and Dog Tired was feeling exhausted.
After grouping out the last group and finishing today’s NYT Connections, the final answers are:
- Perceive (Yellow): Catch, Clock, Notice, Register
- Cadence (Green): Beat, Meter, Rhythm, Time
- One In A Group Of Twelve (Blue): Donut, Inch, Juror, Month
- Dog ___ (Purple): Days, Paddle, Tag, Tired
