November 6 Connections hints
Connections asks you to sort 16 words into four groups that share a connection. These prompts move from broad to more revealing; stop here if you want to solve the board without seeing the answers.
- Yellow: The total financial sum.
- Green: Open your phone.
- Blue: Elements of a vessel.
- Purple: A valentine image.
Alternate prompts from Parade: “How much?”, “Can you get into your phone?”, “Ahoy there, mateys?” and “He’s on a lot of valentines.”
