You can skip to the end of this post for the July 11 Connections Answers if all you want to know is today’s problem. However, if you’d prefer to figure things out on your own, continue reading for some hints, techniques, and ideas.
What is Connections?
The puzzle game “Connections” by NYT is currently all the rage on social media. On sites like X (previously Twitter), among others, you can find people solving problems and sharing their accomplishments and failures. NYT associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu oversees the game. Players in Connections are given sixteen random words to sort into unfamiliar categories.
There are sixteen words in each puzzle, and there are four categories for each group of words. Anything from software names to book titles to nation names could be included in these sets. There is only one right response, although several words will appear to go together.
A set of four words is eliminated from the board if all four words in the set are correctly answered. If a player makes a mistake in their guess, they can make up to four mistakes before the game ends.
Additionally, players can mix and rearrange the board to facilitate link detection. Every group is also colour-coded, with yellow being the easiest and green, blue, and purple following. You can share the outcomes with your friends on social media, just like with Wordle.

I started tackling the Yellow category of the July 11 NYT Connections puzzle using all the supplies I used to overindulge in school, which brought me back to my school days. Then, in fairness, the Green category was presented; given all the technical terms it used, this was a simple answer.
I had every item in the bag when it came to the Blue category, with the exception of the word Hand. But after some mental racking, I understood it as well. The Purple category was the only one remaining, as usual. I completed all the remaining words to complete it, together with the July 11 NYT Connections Puzzle.
