Man, I suck so hard at these. How long do you all usually take to solve these?

lol me too. I win maybe 50% after playing ~20 games
Honestly it doesn't usually take me very long. Maybe 5 minutes usually. I do occasionally get a harder one that I'll come back to multiple times throughout the day, or have to play around in Copilot trying to rearrange different possibilities. But that's relatively rare.
I feel like you have to be native in English for these
I don't know, I personally fail most of them if there's no obvious connection, I get stuck when I have 3 words out of 4 and then lose all my "lives"
Same here, good to know I'm not alone :)
Sometimes I breeze through them, and sometimes I get stuck and have to come back.
I recommend hitting the shuffle button when you get stuck, it can help think of words in other contexts. I also recommend hitting the shuffle button immediately at the start before looking at the board, because they seem to place the words in a way that tricks you. I'm not sure if that's actually wise, but it seems to work for me π

spoiler
It was kale that I missed from purple the first guess, and butter that I added in.
That said, Beethoven feels like a bit of a cheat. Beetroot is the only vegetable that didn't have its complete name included at the start of the substitute word. Nevertheless, it was actually what clued me in to purple to begin with. I spent very little time considering Beethoven as a composer, because nothing else was remotely musical or historical. I spent a little more time on Beethoven the dog, but not much. Then I thought "hmm, maybe it's the purple and it's about beginning or ending with something", and the first thought I had was "beet" as short for beetroot.
