There Is No “Blue” in Korean



























When there aren’t translations that preserve color names, then there might be color areas on images or visualizations that can be easily referred to in one language, but not another.

Even if we are able to come up with color words that mean the same color range, they won’t necessarily have the same connotation. For example “연보라” is a very common color (7th most common color name when we asked Korean speakers to name random colors), but the closest English word is the slightly obscure “lavender," (22nd English color name). Within English we also find examples of connotation differences, such as “pea green” and “puke green” referring to the same color ranges but with different meanings (the same with “blood red” and “deep red”).
