The yellow grouping is considered to be the most straightforward.
What are the green words in todays Connections?
The green grouping is supposed to be the second-easiest.
What are the blue words in todays Connections?
The blue grouping is the second-hardest.
What are the purple words in todays Connections?

Lets see what actually fits.
I think the coins thing is a red herring; the channels category seems like the surest bet.
That clown thing seems like a hit, but I dont see a fourth.
After a Google, it seems that HOMEY D. Clown wasa character onIn Living Color.
Lets try that with PENNYWISE, RONALD, and JOKER.
If I go with football positions, that would be GUARD, SAFETY, QUARTERBACK and CENTER.
That leaves me with DEFENSE, DEMOCRAT, DRIVE, and DIMENSIONAL.
Theyre all D-words, but that doesntoh, itisthat!
Youll see a game board with 16 tiles, each with one word or phrase.
Your job is to select a group of four tiles that have something in common.
Select four items and hit the Submit button.
If you guessed correctly, the category and color will be revealed.
(Yellow is easiest, followed by green, then blue, then purple.)
If your guess was incorrect, youll get a chance to have another go.
You win when youve correctly identified all four groups.
But if you make four mistakes before you finish, the game ends and the answers are revealed.
Expect to see overlapping groups.
So dont hit submit until youve confirmed that your group of four containsonlythose four things.
If youre stuck, another strategy is to look at the words that seem to havenoconnection to the others.
Check back tomorrow for the next puzzle!
