New York Times Connections Answers for April 19th

Are you having trouble with today’s Connections? We at ComicBook got you covered, as we’ve got the correct answers and categories, alongside hints and tips, for today, April 19th’s Connections from The New York Times. NYT has tons of games like Strands and Wordle, but the challenging yet fun category-based gameplay of Connections has proven to be quite the hit. With today’s puzzle, we’ve got a fun lineup of words, including a certain spy, as well as some cool categories. In any case, we have played today’s puzzle and have everything, like the correct answers and hints, that you’ll need to solve today’s Connections.

The New York Times’ Connections gives you 16 different words, and your goal is to sort them into four secret categories. Pick four words or phrases that could be related and, if correct, it will group them into their common association, or connection, if you will. Each category has its own color, with Yellow being the easiest to solve, then Green, Blue, and the hardest, Purple. The categories can range from music genres or lightsaber colors in Star Wars to words with animals in them or things that can be shaken. You only get four turns to get it right and, if you run out, you lose your streak and the categories are revealed. 

In today’s Connections, the words, just like yesterday, are an interesting bunch that can be intimidating at first, but aren’t as hard as you may think. It’s always good to keep in mind for future puzzles that many of the words have multiple meanings, so pay attention to them as you see any matches. The words in today’s Connections are as follows: Hot, Devil, Golden, Intro Class, Lab, Bully, Sandy, Address, Dry, Cannabis, Lecture, James Bond, Talk, Chow, Vast, and Speech.
