The NYT Connections for today, February 21, 2025, can now be solved. The word game has been published in the New York Times since June 2023 and is one of its most popular components. To solve the game, a player must correctly sort a 16-word grid into four groups of four. Each of these groups or categories represents a unique theme and, in turn, is represented by a color. The themes can be a wide array of things — from homonyms to words carrying similar meanings, to palindromes. As for the colors, there are four, yellow, green, blue, and purple, with yellow representing the easiest category and purple the hardest.
