Japanese Words for the Day: More Colors


Yellow-Green is Kimidoro Iro 



White is Shiro


Pink is Pinku, or the more traditional Momo Iro. Which actually means "peach color" even though pink ain't even close to peach...



Light Blue is Mizu Iro which basically means "Water color". 




Orange is Orenji Iro. Funny to see the Japanese also refer to the fruit and the color with the same word, they just add the word "color" to the end of it. 


Brown is Cha Iro



Peach is Hada Iro 


Grey is Nezumi Iro (which means rat color) or  Hai Iro


Black is Kuro
