The first purple I only got because of a precision selection game my children had years ago. I didn’t understand the title of the blue, but fortunately they were the last four words.

I don't understand the explanation for the blue ones
Nor one of the purple ones

I'm persevering but think it's far too American for me.
In The Canterville Ghost (1887), Oscar Wilde wrote: "We have really everything in common with America nowadays except, of course, language."

The last of those greens really threw me - I never use that abbreviated form, so failed to link it to the other three! Luckily I spotted the purples connection before I had wasted all my lives.
