I never expect homonyms. And I did not know half of those were colors. Next time!

Some of these are near impossible for a non-native speaker

Don’t worry, it’s much more fair than you may suspect. Some of these are near impossible for me, a native speaker.

Haha, that's fair.

A few days ago there was a category about Dr. Seuss titles. That's very hard if you haven't grown up with these books.

I definitely guessed BOA, GLOVES, CORSET, and TIE because they were all clothes! When I saw that was wrong, I got purple as an absolute guess. Then I realized FAN was like a hand fan.

Is a little much that one of the categories today was basically "words that can fit into multiple categories", or am I just being salty?
