I literally have no idea what blue is talking about...

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

BlueMeans there's a lot of a thing.

Pack is fairly obvious.

"A whole host of reasons" is a fairly common phrase to mean someone has a lot of reasons for a decision.

"Sea" is a bit less common, but you might say something like "he looked down upon a sea of friendly faces".

"Drove" is honestly one I would consider wrong, but only on a technicality. I would consider this sense of drove to be a "lost singular", in the way that "evitable" is a lost positive (from the real negative "inevitable") or "whelmed" is a lost form from under- and overwhelmed. You never see "a drove of" something, but you do see something "in droves".

Thanks for the walkthrough, what a journey.

Great explanation!

Tap for spoilerI do agree with you regarding drove vs droves, but that’s something Connections does sometimes. I think they sacrifice accuracy to avoid giving a hint (in this case that it’s more than one). I can’t name other examples off the top of my head, but I’ve definitely noticed it before.

I have definitely seen it do things that I didn't agree with mainly because they weren't a part of my dialect before (I can't recall a very good example of that, but one that is kinda similar but not quite was when they used "deli" to mean a place that sells sandwiches: where I live, delis tend to sell the meats that would go on a sandwich, but not the bread...so like ham, salami, that kind of thing), but I don't think I've ever seen an example where the use in their preferred dialect it still required some fudging to get it to work.

Huzzah for purple first

Is purple typically the hardest?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

It’s listed as such, but I find it varies. Sometimes it just clicks in my head.
