How is 빨갛다 conjugated to become 빨강 and in this form is an adjetive or a noun used to describe other nouns (kind of like 빨간색)? And the noun 조록색 becomes and adjetive when you eliminate "색" ?

i’ve heard that some colours need to have 색 removed to become adjectives, for example 빨간색 can be used only as a noun but not as an adjective. the same happens to black and yellow. is it true?
@GoBillyKorean4 жыл бұрын
Some colors can remove 색 to become adjectives, but not all of them - I wouldn't recommend memorizing that. If the word is originally an adjective + 색, then you can remove 색 to get the adjective again. But then you'd have to already know if that word was originally an adjective or if it was originally something else. For example, 갈색 is the color "brown" but you can't just use 갈 as an adjective by itself.

But seems I could find the Chinese origin for both 녹색 and 초록색.....? How do I know which to use in what context?
@GoBillyKorean3 жыл бұрын
There are WAY more colors in Korean than I included in this video. This video only is an introduction to colors. Just like there are thousands of colors of paint, Crayola crayons, etc. You'd need to learn which colors are used in which situations, just like in English. When do you say "white" vs "bright white" vs "cream" vs "eggshell white?" Usually "eggshell white" is used in paints, and "cream" is a softer white. It's the same idea in Korean. You'll have to learn when each color tends to be used, and that's a big topic. But you'll learn it naturally through having a lot of practice conversations, so I wouldn't stress about it.

I've had a couple of interesting conversations with Koreans about the color of carrots. Apparently carrots are 빨간색. (I'm assuming this is just a broader application of the term "red," and perhaps some cultural influence, rather than actually seeing the color differently.)
@GoBillyKorean4 жыл бұрын
Carrots would also be 주황색 ("orange"). You can refer to them as red only in some specific cases, but not when talking about the actual color of carrots. You might say in an idiomatic expression that a person's face is as red as a carrot (홍당무, not 당근), but when actually talking about its color everyone says 주황색.

If you try learning that way, you won't be able to use these colors in other situations. Since colors work like verbs, if you don't learn how they're conjugated then you wouldn't be able to use them in more than 1 situation. If you only learn that blue is 파란 then you won't be able to use it to be able to say that you "like" the color blue, or understand other people saying that something "is blue" unless they use that exact form you learned.
