Fuck, I thought my English was pretty good, but these landed right in my weak spot.

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

It said 5/5 difficulty, but I found it quite easy.
Spoiler
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".

Not sure what to do about this. Does Sync display other spoiler tags appropriately?
!Yes, this one works.!< It could be a bug, it doesn't support multiline spoilers. Just letting you know that some people will still see it.
