Today's Connections Hints & Answers For June 14, 2024 (Puzzle #368)

screenrant.com:

It's fun Friday and time for another puzzle. Today's puzzle has a few red herrings and a category with no clear connection at first glance. This can make it fairly challenging to complete the puzzle today, but fortunately we are here with all the tricks and spoilers if you want them.

If you want to continue with fun Friday, think about trying another NYT browser-game called . asks you to find new words by connecting strings of letters together around a box. The trick is, the word must be at least three letters long and the letters cannot come from the same side of the box the last letter was on. It's a fun challenge for anyone who likes to make words.

The Tiles game for the New York Times mobile app asks you to use various strategies to pair matching visual patterns together to build huge combos.

For those who just want a hint, here are the categories for June 14th. Today, knowing the categories is especially helpful due to how the words are grouped together.

WRITING ASSIGNMENTS

THINGS THAT ARE PINK

NATO PHONETIC ALPHABET

ASSOCIATED WITH #2

WRITING ASSIGNMENTS

ARTICLE

ESSAY

PAPER

REPORTS

This category was the easiest of the bunch today, although PAPER was a bit of a red herring as ERASER and PENCIL are also in later categories. This made it a little challenging but noticing that ESSAY and REPORT were also present made us reconsider PAPER for this category and once we did ARTICLE made sense to belong here as well.

THINGS THAT ARE PINK

BUBBLE GUM

CARNATION

ERASER

FLAMINGO

This one was hard without knowing what the groupings were. ERASER made so much sense with either PENCIL or PAPER and did not end up grouped with either! Everything in this category is also very different, apart from their coloring, so it was a bit harder to think about the colors when trying to assemble the words for this category.

Today’s Wordle answer will be difficult to solve unless players use hints to guide them in the right direction and help them preserve their streak.
