Well done.
For me too.
I was one off on all of them. Didn’t know song. Frustrating today.
Are you an insomniac as well?

Not sure I get it! I did go down the hairdressing red herring path initially. Thought I was being clever.

Is it a bit fishy? I don’t have a usual one. It depends on how successful the first word is.

Oh no. Makes a change for me to get it and you not.
For me, if I hadn’t got the purples first I wouldn’t have known the blues. Too much American culture (?) sometimes.
Never heard of it. Had to google. 😳
Not that it mattered!!

That’s creepy.
So, I needed an update. I see we are about to celebrate 365 day streak!!! I’m getting fed up of Spanish though. I’m on to witches, graves and superstition. I’d prefer more useful vocabulary. Might go back to Swedish.
That’s weird. Not working today either. 🤔
We managed 15 minutes and gave up.
Even if I’d been given the category and known what one was I still don’t think I’d have got the group!!
🤦🏻♀️
Homographs. That makes more sense. Written the same.
I am a linguist and so I know hetero means same but I agree, phone, would be better. I’m wondering if there’s a different word used when teaching primary school phonics. Will have to investigate.
Well, I’ve looked up heteronyms and I still have no idea. 🤷🏻♀️

@cathsbruv.bsky.social have you noticed that the friend quest on Duolingo isn’t working? Second day!!
Failed the Connections though.
This is just next level insanity. In January this year, Reform picked Sharon Carby, aged 70, from Bradford, to run as their Croydon Mayoral candidate. There was just one rather significant problem. She had sadly died in July 2024. insidecroydon.com/2025/08/27/f...

I failed.
I was hopeless too. I only got yellows.
It makes a change. It’s usually me who can’t do it and you can!
Oh no. It took a lot of getting going. And I’d never have got the purples.
Not sure what it’s meant to be though.

Just had a week in Rosedale North Yorks Moors. What a lovely area.

If I was so stupid I wouldn’t broadcast it.
Ah.
I know. It doesn’t normal have those black lines round the boxes. Never mind. It doesn’t matter in the great scheme of things. I’m on holiday.
That’s strange. Mine looked like the photo you posted but now it has gone back to normal. 🤷🏻♀️
Ugh. Not sure I like it.
That’s strange though. My husband grew up on raw milk on a farm. They all drank it from the cow.

I think the conversation is more nuanced on LinkedIn but I do have a hard time remembering to check in there.
Well done. I only got 2.
Do you do LinkedIn? You would get more traction on there.
Gosh. I know it’s depressing, but hopefully, as we usually come back to, the grade boundaries will reflect that the exam was difficult. But why do exam boards make it so opaque? I do hate though that the difficulty of languages has led to a decline in take up. You reap what you sow.
I thought it was gymnast juggling balls.
