I stared at the last eight words for a long time before I saw it.

Took me half an hour to see the purple connection! I’m having fun figuring out all the categories rather than using guesses and process of elimination. It’s time consuming, but far more satisfying than Twitter or other downtime escapes😊.

I moved too quickly on the first category and didn’t look for that fifth word…

I floundered with this one :wink: I was hovering around the idea with the blue and noticed the other meanings, but just didn’t put 2+2 together. And I actually disagree with the purple category, but I guess I need to take that up with the creator. :slight_smile:

Lol. I had no idea what the purple category could possibly be, but those 4 were all that were left.

Now that #90 is officially done for all time zones, I will say that the “l” in “walk” is pronounced. It’s not pronounced like wok! Thus, inclusion in a category where all the words have a silent “l” is one where I disagree with what was included!
