well in narethanaal the word for red is 'blid' (pronounced like the
english word 'bleed'... obviously due to my english bias;))...

so far i have:

red: blid
orange: peto
yellow: rin
green: aige
blue: atae
purple: mutharen

black, brown, and white will probably come next... i must admit that
my perceptions of color are heavily influenced by crayola art
supplies... and i should point out that one doesn't need to know the
specific official 'name' of a color in order to appreciate it...
