Answers For February 10 NYT Connections
Today’s NYT Connections leaned on a relatively easier side with a 2.8 out of 5 difficulty level. However, some words on the spread were confusing at first glance.
To begin my solution, I carefully analyzed all 16 words on the grid before picking Dust, Pepper, Scatter, and Shower.
Moreover, the words formed my first category for today, which was the yellow titled “Sprinkle.”
Similarly, the words in the group are linked with the theme as they are often used to describe spreading something lightly.
Truce Meaning In NYT Connections (#610)
Moving ahead, I noticed words like Aunt and Uncle on the grid. However, there weren’t any other words describing family relationships.
To test my luck, Stop, Mercy, Truce, and Note were my next guesses, but unfortunately, I was a word away and lost one life in today’s edition.
Once again, I tried Stop, Truce, Uncle, and Mercy, which gave me the blue category for today, titled “Aah, Enough!”
In today’s NYT Connections, the meaning of Truce is an agreement between opponents to stop fighting or arguing for a certain period.
Similarly, unlike my initial guess, Uncle didn’t relate to a family member but instead to the term Cry Uncle, which is to surrender to admit defeat.
Either Meaning With Final Categories For NYT Connections
After getting the two categories, I still had 8 words remaining to complete today’s puzzle. So, I picked Note, Aroma, Bouquet, and Nose to form the next group.
Moreover, the words connected to the green category titled “Scents Of Wine,” and the category related to the different kinds of smells that wines can have.
Finally, I grouped the remaining four words, Vase, Tomato, Either, and Aunt, without clarity about their relationship.
Soon, the purple category unfolded on my screen with the title “Words Famously Pronounced Different Ways.”
Similarly, the group referred to the spoken difference in words in various parts of the world. For instance, when pronouncing Either, some stress the ‘eye-ther’ syllable while others stress the ‘ee-ther’ syllable.
With that, here are today’s final answers for NYT Connections, along with the categories:
- Sprinkle (Yellow): Dust, Pepper, Scatter, Shower
- Aah, Enough (Blue): Mercy, Stop, Truce, Uncle
- Scents Of Wine (Green): Aroma, Bouquet, Nose, Note
