No chance, especially as a non native speaker.

For yellow I though something about air like

dead air
cold air
wet air?
windy air?

Purple – farm buildings

smack → shack
barm → barn
rankle?
lear?

I had an idea for green, but dead was taken and smack was sort of taken.
Blue, feels like a strech even with the group.

Got impatient and took a couple of punts, but I figured it out in the end.

Blue...

...seemed like a kind of tenuous connection today.

I found purple first, then only found blue via process of elimination. Unfortunately, I assumed the wrong category was green, so I missed out on the reverse rainbow.

Blue/purple

I was pretty close with purple, but I didn't recognize "ship"... I was too focused on an astronaut-ship-whale connection. Pods though?

First time I've known all the categories in advance. Mixed up blue and green for order though :)
