Funny that colour is brought up. Purple is my favourite colour, but I have a strong predilection for blue-purples. I don't like the colour red very much at all. So there are colours I call "purple" that other people call "blue"; conversely, there are other people's "purples" that I will adamantly classify as "magenta" or "burgundy" or some such.
