Connections Answer for February 17
Are you still stuck with the puzzle? In that case, the answers to today’s Connections are:
- BIT OF HAIR – Curl, Lock, Ringlet, Tress
- MEDIA ATTENTION – Coverage, Exposure, Press, Publicity
- NOUN SUFFIXES – Dom, Ion, Ness, Ship
- _ _ _ CIRCUS – Family, Flea, Flying, Media
The NYT Connections today was quite generic and, as such, easy to solve. I began by doubling down on the Yellow category to get it. The only word that gave me trouble was Tress, but I got it in the end. I then actually solved the Blue category first. All these words made sense at the end of another, so I just mixed and matched until I got it.
Green came next, and while I don’t really hound people, it was easy to get. With only four lefts, I got them all together and combined the Purple category and the NYT Connections for February 17.
