I had a language warp, read one of the purple words as its translation from Latin, and spent quite a while trying to match that translated word. Embarrassing.

Is that the one that only makes sense if you imagine it said in an American accent, rather than an English one?

I could only get three of the four yellows anyway, so didn't even get the purples by default this time.

... three of the four blues, not yellows ...

The one of the purple ones doesn't work in any accent. Or does it? I am swithering now.

Some regional American accent?

I am forced to back down. My midwestern American husband says it just like the purple version.

I’m going to add a icture tomorrow which might explain why they pronounce it like that. 🤣🤣

I think I temporarily went colour blind - I was definitely referring to one of the purples, not the blues, when I said it only worked with an Anerican accent!

Blue did itself I hadn’t seen the connection although it looked obvious when you saw it
