Spoilers below: The categories and all sixteen words are revealed next.
| Color | Category | Words |
|---|---|---|
| Yellow | Parts of a wheel | HUB, RIM, SPOKE, TIRE |

| Blue | Used in ventilation | DUCT, EXHAUST, HOSE, PIPE |
| Purple | Fail to take advantage of, as an opportunity | BLOW, LOSE, MISS, WASTE |
Why EXHAUST and DRAB can be tricky
EXHAUST can suggest tiredness, making it tempting to connect with BLOW, MISS, and LOSE. In this puzzle, it belongs with DUCT, HOSE, and PIPE: all are used in ventilation. BLOW, LOSE, MISS, and WASTE instead complete the idea of failing to take advantage of an opportunity.

CAMO, FATIGUE, and KHAKI may bring military clothing to mind more quickly; DRAB fits as a description of the dull or muted look associated with that clothing.
