Connections Answer for May 10
Are you still stuck with the puzzle? In that case, the answers to today’s Connections are:
- CHUTZPAH – Brass, Cheek, Gall, Nerve
- ACCESSORIES FOR DOG WALKING – Collar, Halter, Harness, Lead
- THINGS THAT SPIN – Carousel, Globe, Record, Top
- LEAD SINGERS OF ’70S ROCK BANDS – Ferry, Mercury, Nicks, Plant
Today, the NYT Connections puzzle dabbles into rock bands and dog walkers alike. However, I didn’t know this just yet, so I began steadily by solving the Yellow category first. While I always knew Cheek and Gall were words for bravery, I wasn’t prepared for Brass and even Chutzpah itself!
The Blue category came next and, despite being harder, was easy enough to solve. I mean, Globe and Record is a dead giveaway, right? The Green category was easier, and after some Googling, I realized Halter is also a Pup accessory.
With only four words left, I got them all together, along with the Purple category and the NYT Connections puzzle for May 10.
