New day brings the new Connections #219 puzzle to solve, and here are the hints and answers for today, January 16.

Connections is a word game by The New York Times, in which you will have a 4x4 grid with a total of 16 words belonging to different categories, and your job is to select four of them relating to each other. There will be a total of four groups (Yellow, Green, Blue, and Purple) that you need to find along with their order, which will be represented by a color that will be revealed as you solve the puzzle.

Each day, a new Connections puzzle will be available, and there is only one correct answer to each one of them for everyone. You will get four chances to figure out all the groups, and if you get all of them wrong, you will lose the game, which you don't want. Thus, we have provided today's Connections hints and answers that you can follow to solve the puzzle if you are finding any trouble.
