I did hard work with this game where even the purple-hardest group was pretty straightforward.
Hopefully I wasn’t the only nerd that was set forever, begins, returning and eternal together and thought the connection was Batman. Unfortunately, it wasn’t to be, but the mistake forced me to think again more clearly.
Swift has appeared a few times in bird groups, and I am always tempted to make a limping joke about being a rigorous as they are really the most notable beings.
Everything about them is extraordinary – like Taylor, they never stop moving, spend their entire lives on the wing, eat, sleep and pair while on the run. The last bit is not like Taylor. As far as we know.

What are new connections?
New Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four objects that share something in common, and each group has another level of difficulty: green is light, yellow a little harder, blue often quite hard and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you do not have to technically solve the last one, as you can answer one by an elimination process. In addition, you can make up to four errors, giving you a little bit of breathing room.
However, it is a little more involved than something like Wordle, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to get up with tricks. For example, be careful on gay and other word games that can hide the answers.
It can be played free of charge via the new Games website on desktop or mobile.
