    “Lama” really gave away the purple category for me today.

      purple

      Yeah I think I spotted lama first as well, but anther also stood out because it sounds made up unless you’re into botany, which I’m not. Then hark would probably having trouble fitting into a “normal” category grouping, unless there were other words you yell for stop like (eg) avast or halt or some such. So the only one that could be potentially overlooked was the common “easel”.

    Welp 😅

    Spoiler

    Maybe I could have gotten yellow but it feels kinda wishy washy and has so much overlap with blue that it created a ton of red herrings for the blue grouping

    I didn’t make the connection on purple this time, so that one probably wasn’t gonna help me. I was thinking maybe one of the connections could be parts of a flower or things at a flower stand (stamen, stem, easel)

    Today was hard. Could not differentiate groups by difficulty besides purple.

    Odd way of getting the solution today. Saw yellow but couldn’t get the last one. So went and saw purple (seeing words that don’t quite make sense is a good indicator of this kind of connection) then the rest fell into place.

    I couldn’t see a difference in difficulty in the categories after purple. In fact I was almost certain the yellow words would’ve been more difficult than the blue ones–blue was the first group I saw but I held off submitting it to see if I could get down to the purple eventually.
