Purple and blue were mean. Especially with the actual categories being what they are.

I thought dice-mice-lice was an obvious trap, because dice can be both the singular and plural and fit better with “plural the same as singular”. Of course the pedants at the NYT see die-dice as the official pair. But what really got me was squid-sheep-deer-shrimp. It’s not 2 squids, 2 sheeps (okay, I knew this one), 2 deers, 2 shrimps?
Plural
I also thought shrimps was correct.

Uniqueness 1 in 2,546It said 5/5 difficulty, but I found it quite easy.

I’m not a huge fan of the official description for purple though. “Very different from their singular forms”? Oxen is literally just “ox” plus “en”. It’s not modifying the singular form at all, just adding something to the end, the same way many words add “s” or “es”. Even “dice” is kinda just “die” plus “s”, with a twist.
I thought of purple as just “plural words made without adding an ‘s’ to the end”.
