Today I did not see the purple "FOOD ____" Connection.

Also, were any of you bothered by the green MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS clues of FIDDLE, HORN, RECORDER, TRIANGLE? What bothered me is that FIDDLE, RECORDER, and TRIANGLE are specific instruments, while HORN is a whole category: trumpet, trombone, French horn, etc.

Dog Hand

P.S. In retrospect, my third Wordle guess was not a valid answer. The website https://prowritingaid.com/does-wordle-use-plurals gives these rules:

� Wordle answers can be plural nouns, but not if they end in S or ES.

� Wordle answers can be past tense verbs, but not if they end in ED.

� Plural nouns and past tense words can be used as Wordle guesses even if they aren�t valid Wordle answers.

P.P.S. Are any of you also worried that when the NYT "Sale: Final hours. Save 50%." offer expires, we'll all find that Wordle and Connections will be behind the paywall?

I knew a professional French horn player who would say that he played the horn.

I guess 'horn' often means 'French horn.'
