NYT Connections’ edition for January 19 is now out. This interesting game offers players 16 words every day to segregate into different categories, each based on a unique theme. The wordplay may involve palindromes or homophones. Each category reflects a different difficulty level, marked by a different color. Here, yellow indicates the simplest category to crack, while purple is the most difficult. To crack the puzzle, players are required to place four words that are similar to the theme in the same category. Players need not worry, as there is in-game assistance and hints available to guide them throughout the puzzle.
Here are the hints, clues, and answers to make puzzle-solving easier.

Today’s Connections was a bit trickier, especially in the Purple category. The first three categories are comparatively more straightforward, as they can be easily understood with the help of hints. However, if you get stuck midway, the best way to move forward is to first sort all the words you’re confident about. The remaining ones can then be mismatched or carefully guessed using the hints to place them in their correct categories.
