    I didn’t recognise purple but I did at least get it. Here are some examples according to my understanding.

    Spoiler

    You cleave meat into pieces, yet you cleave onto someone you don’t want to let go of.

    You garnish food when serving it by adding e.g parsley, but when wages are garnished, money is deducted from them before they are paid out.

    A personal relationship that is sanctioned is accepted, however you raise sanctions to stop relationships between countries.

    When you have the oversight of a project, then you know everything about it. On the other hand, forgetting something while working on a project is an oversight.

      Thanks! I knew the last two words could be used that way, but only knew the first meaning for the first two words. It helps to see the examples, cheers
