New -Connections Today (Play #796) – The answers
The answers to today’s connections, game #796, are …
- Yellow: Poultry Cuts Breast, tender, thighs, wing
- Green: Handling, like a bill Foot, salary, run, take care of
- Blue: Splendid Brilliant, capital, fine, magnificent

The tiles that read take care of were so much out that I found out to find ordinary words to link to it.
I’m sure I wasn’t the only one who did this, and I’m also sure I wasn’t the only person who wondered about the phrase “foot the bill”. It comes from adding a column with figures at the bottom of a side rather than anything to do with our feet.
My mistake came to think that cash, capital, magnificent and bids were all expressions of money. I got “one away” but changed attention to the far more obvious collection of poultry cuts.
I love nuts, but even after the answers were revealed, I struggled to think what PEC could refer to. Are pecans culinary? I thought they were a poor man’s walnut.

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.
