I think most of us are of an age that means we are likely big fans of blue.

Blue was an accident for me - I googled a word and was presented with the answer. Similar to what happened to me yesterday !

Googled one word which gave me blue - like @thinky and @Shinyhappyapple .

This eliminated enough words to enable me to get yellow and green. PBD.

I wasn’t expecting purple to be purple. BBD, although I had looked for that connection, I didn’t know all those terms.
