Looking for the hints and the answers for Monday’s game of Connections? You can find them here:
Hey there, folks! Hope your week is off to a positive start. This has nothing to do with today’s Connections game, but I just want you to know that I’ve had Tracy Chapman’s “Fast Car” stuck in my head for the last couple of days. What a fantastic song that is. Anyway, today’s Connections hints and answers are coming right up.
How To Play Connections
In Connections, you’re presented with a grid of 16 words. Your task is to arrange them into four groups of four by figuring out the links between them. The groups could be things like horror movie franchises, a type of verb or rappers.
There’s only one solution for each puzzle, and you’ll need to be careful when it comes to words that might fit into more than one category. You can shuffle the words to perhaps help you see links between them.
Each group is color coded. The yellow group is the easiest to figure out, blue and green fall in the middle, and the purple group is typically the hardest one to deduce.
Select four words you think go together and press Submit. If you make a guess and you’re incorrect, you’ll lose a life. If you’re close to having a correct group, you might see a message telling you that you’re one word away from getting it right, but you’ll still need to figure out which one to swap.
If you make four mistakes, it’s game over. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen with the help of some hints, and, if you’re really struggling, today’s Connections answers.

Connections Answers For September 11
Spoiler alert! Don’t scroll any further down the page until you’re ready to find out today’s Connections answers.
This is your final warning!
Today’s connections are…
- Yellow group — hot drinks (CHAI, COCOA, COFFEE, TEA)
- Green group — animal sounds (BUZZ, CLUCK, MEOW, OINK)
- Blue group — tree features (BARK, BRANCH, ROOT, TRUNK)
- Purple group — inside info (DIRT, DISH, SCOOP, SKINNY)
I have once again achieved an impressive winning streak of two in a row after a perfect game today. I almost messed up right out of the gate by including BARK with the animal noises, but the other tree words caught my attention and I barely avoided that trap.
I got the green group first, then the blue words. Yellow was up next (as I sipped a cup of tea, funnily enough), leaving me with the purple words to clean up.
I have my fingers and toes crossed that Scotland also have a perfect game against England today.
That’s all there is to it for today’s Connections clues and answers. Be sure to check my blog for hints and the solution for Wednesday’s game if you need them.
