Spoiler warning: This guide starts with the word bank and graduated hints, then reveals the categories and full answer key for the May 6, 2024, Connections puzzle, No. 330.

What are the words in Connections No. 330?

The 16 words on the May 6, 2024 board were:

SOME, LOVERS, FOOL, MANY, COUPLE, JOIN, MAGICIAN, HANDFUL, TOWER, FEW, BOTHER, TIE, PAIN, LINK, SEVERAL, PEST.

Connections asks players to sort 16 words into four groups of four that share a theme. The groups are color-coded by difficulty: yellow is generally easiest and purple trickiest. Similarities can overlap, so a word that seems to fit one category may belong elsewhere. The New York Times says the daily puzzle is released at midnight in the player’s timezone. See the NYT Connections help page for the game’s rules and access information.

What are the hints for Connections today?

Use these clues in order, stopping when you have enough to solve the board:

  1. One group is about making a connection.
  2. SOME and FEW belong together.
  3. One group describes an annoyance or nuisance.
  4. Another group consists of words for an indeterminate amount.
  5. For the last group, put “the” before each word to form a familiar tarot card name.

What are the Connections groups for May 6?

The categories are CONNECT, NUISANCE, QUANTITY WORDS, and TAROT CARDS, WITH “THE.”

What are today’s Connections answers?

Here is the complete solution, grouped by color:

  • Yellow — CONNECT: COUPLE, JOIN, LINK, TIE.
  • Green — NUISANCE: BOTHER, HANDFUL, PAIN, PEST.
  • Blue — QUANTITY WORDS: FEW, MANY, SEVERAL, SOME.
  • Purple — TAROT CARDS, WITH “THE”: FOOL, LOVERS, MAGICIAN, TOWER.

Why is HANDFUL easy to misplace?

HANDFUL can suggest an amount, which makes it tempting to group with FEW, MANY, SEVERAL, and SOME. In this solution, however, it means a nuisance or troublesome person, alongside BOTHER, PAIN, and PEST. The tarot group is confirmed by adding “the” to each word: The Fool, The Lovers, The Magician, and The Tower.
