Modal auxiliary verbs are verbs that attach to main verbs to show things like possibilities or necessities. So "I can drink it" shows ability or permission, "I should drink it" makes a recommendation, and "I must drink it" shows an obligation. (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=English_modal_auxiliary_verbs)

Green is just the British names of ways to cook potatoes. Chips are fries, jacket potato is a baked potato. Bubble and squeak doesn't show up in the US much.

I solved purple only by eliminating everything else. I still don’t get it, but I might just be dumb.

Tap for spoiler

I can do that

I will do that

I may do that

I must do that

Modals verbs are sometimes called helping verbs and modify the main verb (in these cases "do") by showing intent, possibility, or permission. It differs from " I do that", which indicates action.

blue

That's a pretty obscure category. I thought it was places emblems are displayed, but helmet wouldn't have fit that so well
