You might be very exciting if you see a beautiful rainbow across the sky after a heavy rain,it describes an arch of colours in the sky. But have you noticed what colours the rainbow have? Rainbows come into sight in seven colors as water droplets break sunlight into the seven colors of the spectrum, and always in this order:

hóng

RED

chéng

ORANGE

huáng

YELLOW


绿
GREEN

qīng

CYAN

lán

BLUE



VIOLET

Other color words to describe things on a daily basis:

hēi

BLANK

bái

WHITE

fěn

PINK

huī

Chinese words about color end with “sè”. In other words, when we describe things with colors, we basically say “____-colored _____”.For example, the sky is blue,we usually said” tian kong shi lan se de”.
