And Géarthnuns as well. Géarthnuns likes to break things down in to the
traditional spectrum to fit in with its seven scheme:

dhaubs            green
ngölars            orange
saföts              indigo
sülíns               blue
römbeleks       yellow
zíauríls            red
zheshkeths      purple

Another spectrum of secondary colors complements the above list:

aibs            gold
dvaurhörs    brown
nevalets        gray
garhans        white
vaçiks        silver
lökföls        pink
éfüths        black

Ties in to the days of the week, stars of the Big Dipper, the oceans, the
continents, visible planets plus sun and moon, etc....
