Word Category Guides
How to handle an ambiguous word in the word category game?
Some words may evoke more than one relationship. Instead of immediately concluding such a card, narrow down the categories with clearer examples. Other words on the board provide context; the first meaning of a word that comes to mind is not the only option.
Short answer
Some words may evoke more than one relationship. Instead of immediately concluding such a card, narrow down the categories with clearer examples. Other words on the board provide context; the first meaning of a word that comes to mind is not the only option.
How do you try it in the game?
Adapt the steps below to your board layout. Predict the result before each move, then compare your prediction with what happens after the move.
- Group more clearly related words.
- Compare the possible meanings of the ambiguous word.
- Re-examine its fit with the remaining category.
Mistake to avoid
Don't force the ambiguous word to fit your initial guess.
