NYT Connections Hints for June 1, 2026

The NYT Connections puzzle today is not too hard if you read a lot.

Connections is a popular New York Times word game. It's about finding the common links between words. Like Wordle, it gets harder each day, so we have hints to help you.

You can find today's puzzle answer at the end of this article. Or, keep reading for clues and tips to solve it yourself.

The NYT's new word game is a social media hit. Wyna Liu helped create it. You can play on the web or on your phone. You group four words that have something in common.

Each puzzle has 16 words in four groups. These can be book titles, software, or country names. Only one answer is correct, even if many words seem to fit.

If you get all four words right, they disappear from the board. If not, it's a mistake. You can make up to four mistakes.

You can move the words around to make it easier. Each group has a color: yellow is easy, then green, blue, and purple. You can share your results on social media.

Want a hint about the groups without knowing what they are? Try these:

Yellow: Things with four walls

Green: Things that help you relax

Blue: Things found in old books

Purple: Things you wear on your hand

Need more help? Today's groups are about these things:

Yellow: Parts of a room

Green: Old things to relax with

Blue: Topics in old book titles

Purple: A type of ring
