Below you’ll find the Connections hints and answers for July 23, 2024. This word game from The New York Times is somewhat different than Strands and Wordle in that it gives 16 words and then asks players to place them into four specific groups. The name of the game is to figure out what these categories are, which is easier said than done since many of the words seem to relate each other in unusual ways or might have several commonalities. Compared to the puzzle from July 19, this one is quite challenging. Here is the Connections answer for 07/23/2024, as well as some clues and hints in case you need some assistance.

What are the Connections answers for July 23, 2024?
Here are the Connections answers for July 23, 2024. We will reveal which four words belong in which colored group, again from yellow (easiest), to green, blue, and purple (hardest).
- Yellow Group Answer: Imposter
- CHARLATAN, FRAUD, QUACK, SHAM
- Green Group Answer: Utterance
- NOISE, PEEP, SOUND, WORD
- Blue Group Answer: One Who Likes Showing Off
- HAM, HOT DOG, PEACOCK, SHOWBOAT
- Purple Group Answer: Looney Tunes Characters Minus A Letter
- BUG, PORK, SPEED, TWEET
The yellow group, as usual, should be the easiest. “QUACK” might make the solution confusing, since “PEEP” and “TWEET” are also animal sounds. The green category is actually tougher than most since there are a lot of words in this puzzle that have to do with sounds, so it’s unclear which words are under “utterance.” The toughest word in the blue group is “hot dog,” since it’s alternate definition of someone who is a show-off isn’t as highly used as the other words in the group. And the purple group is just complicated, especially if you don’t know Looney Tunes characters.
