NYT Connections Puzzle #1203 for September 26: Hints and Answers

NYT Connections is a daily word puzzle from the New York Times where players sort 16 words into four groups of four by identifying what connects them. The game has become popular since launching in June 2023 as a free-to-play title available on desktop and mobile devices worldwide.

Each puzzle presents words that are color-coded by difficulty: yellow (easiest), green, blue, and purple (hardest). Players get four guesses to find all four groups. A single puzzle solution exists for each day, though some words can have multiple meanings, which can complicate the challenge.
