NYT Connections Answers For Today (February 9)
Today’s NYT Connections puzzle is one of the easier ones, featuring familiar words and groups that aren’t difficult to figure out.
As always, begin the game by analyzing the 16 given words, looking for possible connections or themes that link groups of four together.
Identifying the first group was easy, as the words were synonyms that all described something large.
Named “Massive,” the first group includes words that match its theme, such as Giant, Jumbo, Monster,and Super.
Bowl Meaning In NYT Connections
As you continue, you may notice the names of kitchen utensils. Since these words share a common theme, I grouped them together.
Grouping Bowl, Ladle, Pot, and Spoon revealed the next set: the green group, titled “Used When Serving Soup.“
Here, Bowl refers to a rounded dish that is generally deeper than a basin and larger than a cup.
Forming the second group completes half of the puzzle, leaving 8 words to be divided into two more groups.
It’s not difficult to identify four words that are synonyms from the remaining eight.
Character, Individual, Party, and Person all refer to a human being or entity, so grouping them forms the blue group named “Somebody.“
Meaning Of Tron In NYT Connections
Tron is a 1982 American science fiction action-adventure film, with a sequel, Tron: Legacy, added to its franchise.
Similarly, the remaining words are all the names of science fiction movie franchises.
They all share a common theme, meaning Alien, Avatar, Dune, and Tron form the final group of today’s NYT Connections, titled “Sci-Fi Franchises.“
Here is today’s final list of words and themes for NYT Connections, organized by their difficulty levels.
- Massive (Yellow): Giant, Jumbo, Monster, Super
