NYT Connections hints and answers for today, March 11, 2025

NYT Connections

The New York Times’ daily word game, Connections, challenges players to find common links between words. The game resets at midnight, presenting a new puzzle each day. Players must group 16 words into four categories based on shared characteristics.

For those looking for clues before seeing the answers, here are the general themes of today’s categories:

• Yellow: A change from the usual

• Green: Items that produce ringing sounds

• Blue: Items commonly made from leather

• Purple: Musicians known for both singing and playing piano

• Variation from the norm: Alternative, Break, Change, Departure

• Things that ring: Alarm, Bell, Intercom, Phone

• Things traditionally made of leather: Football, Moccasins, Saddle, Wallet

• Singer-songwriter pianists: Keys, King, Legend, Wonder

Players can make up to four mistakes before the game ends. If stuck, shuffling the words can help identify patterns. The difficulty of the categories increases, with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, Connections allows players to share their results on social media.
