    Blue and yellow I just couldn’t see. Still don’t quite understand yellow. Can’t win them all.

      Yellow

      If you “move” someone that tends to mean you said or did something that affected them, emotionally. “Touch” can mean the same thing. Sway tends to mean you affected their opinion about something (“I swayed him to my side of the argument”). Reach is a bit more of a stretch, but to copy its relevant Wiktionary definition: “To connect with (someone) on an emotional level, making them receptive of (one); to get through to (someone).”

      I had the same problem with yellow, the connection was too vague. Normally yellow is just straight up synonyms, but give me one sentence where all four of these are interchangeable.
