Re: [lace-chat] Colour blindness and turquoise

[Brenda Paternoster]

A standard six colour colour-wheel has the primary colours, (red, blue 
& yellow) and the secondary colours, (purple, green and orange) 
arranged:  red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple.  You can sub 
divide to include .... yellow, green-yellow, yellow-green, green, 
blue-green, green-blue, blue .....

Turquoise is somewhere around green-blue or blue-green but is a rather 
vague name, a bit  like "peach" is that orange, yellow orange, 
red-orange, orange-red?

DH isn't colour blind, but to him there's no such colour as turquoise 
- it's
either blue or green. He won't necessarily agree with me that a 
particular
shade/hue of turquoise is leaning towards blue or towards green. I'll 
say a
colour is a greeny turquoise, he'll say it's blue. Then another shade 
that I
say is another greeny turquoise, he'll say is green.
