How to play Word Groups

Sort sixteen words into four hidden groups of four. Watch out for words that seem to fit two groups.

The rules

1. Sixteen words hide four groups. Each group of four words shares a link.
2. Pick four words and press Submit. If they share a link, the group is solved.
3. Some words seem to fit more than one group, but each word belongs to only one.
4. You can make 4 mistakes. Solve all four groups to win.

How to get started

1. Read all sixteen words. Which ones seem to belong together?
2. Look for a group that has more than four possible words. One of them belongs somewhere else.
3. Start with the group you are surest about. Solving it leaves fewer words to sort.
4. If you see "One away", three of your four words are right. Swap one word.
5. Hint names one group's link. Ask the coach whenever you want a nudge.

A tip

Some words fit two groups. Before you submit, check that none of your four words would fit better somewhere else.
