No joy today. Had to look a couple of those up after the fact, and when the definition starts "In American English ...", it makes sense. :(

Thought I had it, then… nothing

Same. I had guessed yellow's category, but so many possible options that sounded at least as plausible as the yellow answer.

Same here. And purple's category had multiple options too. Made this one difficult.

I just gave up. Green is weird to me, had yellow, never encountered one of the things.
Didn't know 3 out of 8 remaining things so there's that.

Eek, that was rough. I've never heard of "boyfriend" in that category. Once I got that worked out for yellow I could see the rest.

::: spoiler Tap for spoiler I figured out the categories pretty quickly today, but I couldn’t guess the correct order for the reverse rainbow, unfortunately. :::
