240 color names in English
From snow to jade, if you are struggling to describe a color or you just want to broaden your
vocabulary.

(Although the blacks seem all the same to me.)

If you’re trying to write English, use “you’re” correctly.

As a man I can only see 7 colors here: white, yellow, orange, red, pink, blue, green, brown, grey
and black. Yes, also as a man I can´t count well above five and purple is never going to touch my
eyes while I live…

I’m just kidding, my job is video editor and I can distinguish all of the 240, it’s just that girls’
vision seems to be more fitted to appreciate subtle color changes. By the way, do you know that a
book have been published containing nothing more that every possible RGB color that a human
range of vision can have?

Some of your colour samples look nothing like the names. Watermelon and daffodil for example.

Nice job. But er er- ah- excuse me here (harrumphing now) I might possibly have given a similar
or longer list in my blog at http://lonelyasteroid.blogspot.in/2014/03/www-words-for-wannabe-
writers.html

(I apologize for this)

Nice idea for a blog post. Where did you get this information? It reminds me of going to the
hardware store and looking at the thousands of different hues of paint that are available. Different
manufacturers have their own names for their colors.
(If “merigold” is meant to represent the color of the flower, it is misspelled.)
