The Groups for Today’s NY Times Connections
NY Times Connections can get confusing. If you still haven’t figured it out, perhaps knowing the group names will help. Here they are:
- Equip
- Individuality
- Furniture
- Words With Apostrophes Removed
The New York Times Connections Answers for November 4
If you still couldn’t figure it out, no worries. Here is the solution for today’s Connections puzzle.
- Equip: Furnish, Outfit, Provision, Stock
- Individuality: Being, Character, Self, Ego
- Furniture: Chest, Console, Vanity, Wardrobe
- Words With Apostrophes Removed: Cant, Id, Shell, Were
The Equip one was probably the simplest of the bunch. There wasn’t too much confusing about it. Individuality can be confusing, especially since the word Chest doesn’t fit in the category and can be confused with the others very easily.
The same can be said for the Furniture category. Console has two different pronunciations and that could have been a headscratcher. Chest refers to a treasure chest, which doesn’t seem obvious from the get-go.
By far, one of the most confusing parts of today’s New York Times Connections game was figuring out the Apostrophe category. Shell and Were are still words with or without the apostrophe, and since the words are presented capitalized, even ‘ID‘ can be thought of as ‘Identification‘ and not ‘I’d‘.
Regardless, that’s what makes Connections fun. Its weird combinations of words make for a really engaging time especially when played with friends or family all trying to figure it out at the same time.
Today’s puzzle was a tricky one. Pat yourself on the back if you got it. Remember, there’s always tomorrow’s game to look out for, and if you haven’t already, be sure to check out November 3’s puzzle if you want to play through the archives.
