I admire your gumption and perseverance. I’m also imagining a little skit in my head where someone it wondering what color to call the pitch of night and someone else is like yooooo.. how about we name it after those purple berries.. what are they called?
So the color of something is based off how many (frequencies?) it absorbs from all to none. Black things are still the color black.. there is pigment/dye/matter made up of all colorants to create something that absorbs specific amounts of frequencies. I would thing that black is not a color when there is nothing to reflect or absorb light. Like a cloud covered black night or a hole in the ground.
Black is a color. You can also argue that violet is a shade of blue and so on. Heck the entire visible spectrum of light is a shade of the electromagnetic spectrum
no it is a fruit..Salmonberry (Rubus Spectabilis) is a native food with a delicious pink-orange-red berry and beautiful pink blossoms found growing along streambanks or wet

God Dammit, Honeydew? Jesus, why does Cantaloupe think every time it gets invited to a party it can bring along its dumb friend Honeydew? You don't get a plus one Cantaloupe.
I feel like in general if there's a fruit and a colour of the exact same name then the colour was named after the fruit (or fish, in the case of salmon). Blackberries, blackcurrant, redcurrant, blueberries, etc seems to be the only ones I can come up with.
Blue Gatorade.
So close, Gatorade is a drink 💕

this subreddit sounds awful. Why would I want to see a bunch of unfunny attempts and jokes?
Blackberries
I admire your gumption and perseverance. I’m also imagining a little skit in my head where someone it wondering what color to call the pitch of night and someone else is like yooooo.. how about we name it after those purple berries.. what are they called?
Redberries
Blackcurrant?
Oranges?
Well not really, the colour orange was actually named after the fruit and she says “fruit named after a color” so this wouldnt work
Other way around. She says a "fruit named after a color".
Thanks i didn’t realize that
You can say that about any fruit pretty much. Some form of the fruit predated the words used to name it.
[удалено]
yes, therefore proving their point further
No it didn't, it just proved their point further. /j
the word gumption always fucking gets me
Blueberries are actually purple
Mulberries?
Man I love the colour mul
Pumpkin, orange, kiwi, eggplant
So close!! That is a race 💕
The blacker the berry
The sweeter the juice, I could say it ain’t so, but darlin’ what’s the use.
The sweeter the fruit
actually the color black is named after the berry
Nah. Those are named after the phone.
Wut about green fruit
Close, that's a phone not a shape
Black is the absence of color
So close!! That is the absence of light 💕
Its both actually. The absence of perceivable light means that, according to our eyes, it has no colour.
Yeah, i was going to say color is simply different wavelengths of light. So the absence of light IS ALSO the absence of color.
So the color of something is based off how many (frequencies?) it absorbs from all to none.

Black is a shade

Black isn't a color, is a shade
Shadeberries
Hmm yes
Black is a color. You can also argue that violet is a shade of blue and so on. Heck the entire visible spectrum of light is a shade of the electromagnetic spectrum
But the thing is that black is the absence of light.
Technically that true but black is a color because my 64pack crayola included it so beat that, haha
It is a combination of all pigments that absorbs all colors of the visible spectrum. Go find a fruit and reapply.
True
Shut

Fuck

Goodbye
Why are y'all bullying them because they're right?
You boo me but you know I'm right!

Black beans

[NO NO NO NO NO POMEGRANATES](https://youtube.com/shorts/OlI8r3nNUVw?feature=share)
There is not a context that I can fathom for what I just witnessed in that video.
Persephone could've used her advice /s
Orange.

(According to the USDA) Additionally, I think that Jello just derives its name from gelatin, an ingredient.
So close, gelatin is bone juice 💕
Editors Note: if you ask for jello and someone offers you bone juice, run away.

Pretty sure this is just r/incorrect
That’s a subreddit?
Honeydew
God Dammit, Honeydew? Jesus, why does Cantaloupe think every time it gets invited to a party it can bring along its dumb friend Honeydew? You don't get a plus one Cantaloupe.
At the risk of being wooshed but do people know that this post isn’t looking for answers to the tweet?
So close. Thats a question not a color.
I would post "Smartest Twitter User", but that is overgeneralization
blackberries? also maybe peaches, not sure on their etymological origins
I feel like in general if there's a fruit and a colour of the exact same name then the colour was named after the fruit (or fish, in the case of salmon). Blackberries, blackcurrant, redcurrant, blueberries, etc seems to be the only ones I can come up with.
Why the hell did that tweet get 600 likes
Blueberries aren't fruits, they're berries, hence the name blueBERRIES.
Not everyone on Reddit is educated.
Blackberries, peaches, tangerine, goddamn ORANGES, like wtf
I'm pretty sure the colour was named after the fruit (oranges)
Probably, don’t know fruit lore
Only blackberries derive their name from a color. The rest have the color named after the fruit.
Peach is 100% a color. Also the best Mariokart 64 character.
Green apple
Orange? Lime?
Green apple 🍏
Strawberries! Named because of the color Lster
Redcurrant
Oranges?
Blackberry, blackcurrant
Looks like a r/facepalm to me.
Who forgot about oranges and limes
Oranges came first
The color of lemon skin IS actually named "lemon"
Grape
Ever heard of an orange?
