      An additional thing you might want to look up is given color is a spectrum, some cultures have developed different sets of “basic colors” that are used in daily life.

      For instance, Russian has a very common word “Голубой” which means light blue, and I personally remember being very confused as a kid learning English by a single word “Blue” presented in Eng. textbooks

        Italian also has two distinct blues: azzurro for light and blu for dark
