The answers to today's Connections, game #748, are YELLOW: THINGS A DOG CAN FETCH BALL, BONE, FRISBEE, STICK GREEN: GREAT MANY DROVE, HOST, LOAD, SCORE BLUE: POSSIBLE RESULTS OF A TRAFFIC VIOLATION BOOT, POINTS, TICKET, TOW PURPLE: INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION INVENTORS BELL, DIESEL, SINGER, WATT My rating: Hard My score: Fail

I crashed out today, but I dont feel too bad about it as I managed to get the purple group before running out of guesses.

For the record: Alexander Graham BELL was the inventor of the telephone, Rudolf DIESEL refined the internal combustion engine, Isaac SINGER patented the sewing machine, and the steam engine invented by James WATT powered mills and distilleries.

Tech history and THINGS A DOG CAN FETCH aside I floundered. I did come "one away" with POSSIBLE RESULTS OF A TRAFFIC VIOLATION, but the truth is I had no idea what I was looking for.

I'm blaming cultural differences as I was completely unaware what a BOOT was (in the UK we call it a clamp, and a 'boot' is what the US knows as a trunk).

How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually very difficult.

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
