It Is Green

Jax disagrees with me. She thinks this is blue. It is clearly green.

Sadly, both our children have inherited her colour blindness.

    The best bit was when Small pointed at frog and then the sample, and said “this is green, that is blue, now can you see the difference?”

    rofl.

  2. Alison says:

    That falls on the green side of the line for me. Not as green as a frog, sure, but not blue. Asked the kids – the girls say blue, Ernest says green.

  3. Jax says:

    I think his picture looks greener than the real thing…

  4. Sarah says:

    I think it is almost certainly turquoise!

  5. Sarah says:

    and without giving any hints/options my kids said blue (anna) and turquoise (the other two).

  6. Sarah, Dino and Mimi says:

    Purple…..

  7. Tim says:

    Sarah, um, get something tested.

    (While you’re there, maybe, get everything tested :-) )

  8. Nic says:

    S says turquoise, D says blue. I probably say turquoise too but definitely greener rather than bluer.

  9. It depends which monitorI display it on. On my main monitor, it’s blue. On my second monitor, it’s green. Being a bloke, that’s a close as I can get.

  10. Sarah, Dino and Mimi says:

    Tim, I’m back at the hospital at the end of the month, I’ll ask them then.

    It’s bluey green? Greeny blue? More on the green side though. Sorry Jax.

  11. Amanda says:

    Turquoise, or greeny/blue !

  12. Bob says:

    Ask someone from Wales

    We have the same disagreements over red / purple. See you in Relate’s special sessions on marital colour differences.

  13. Gem says:

    It’s definitely a greenish turquoise!

    Now, for another debate, what color is lemon/lime Gatorade? (do you have that over there?) Generally, men say one color, women say another. I wonder if it looks different to someone who is blue/green colorblind?

  14. Claire says:

    Charlie says aqua and I think its turquoise on the greener side.

  15. Claire says:

    That is definitely green though I can see where you might have got the blue from. If it had a yellow base then it would have been more frog green but as it has a blue base, the appearance is more turquoise.

  16. Jax says:

    It’s bluer in person, trust me. I’m making it into a cardigan for Small, so in time, probably quite a few of you will be able to see it and judge for yourselves.

  17. Clare says:

    I say ‘green’, Flopsy says ‘light blue’, and Mopsy agrees with her because Mopsy agrees with everything Flopsy says!, and Dh says ‘turquoise’. I’m right of course ;-)

  18. Jan says:

    or possibly bleen

  19. HelenHaricot says:

    Grue with Jan. though it is on the greener side for me! Bob, is it chinese that have only one word for blue/green [was it you that posted on it a while back?] and it can be grue like the sea, or grue like the grass?? I think this m,ight be grue like the grass.

  20. HelenHaricot says:

    oh, rofl at small making his point!

  21. HelenHaricot says:

    just seen your link bob – doh!

  22. Bryony says:

    I hate to add more to the arguement, but I say it is teal.

    See?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teal_(color)

    I win! ;)

  23. HelenHaricot says:

    actually much more ‘blue’/turquoise on the laptop.

  24. Tim says:

    Teal? Teal? Teal?

    Hands up who thinks teal is a proper colour.

    G R E E N !

  25. dottyspots says:

    turquoise – although I’d also think Teal ;)

  26. Jax says:

    I think it’s probably this shade although as I got it in a bargain cone, it wasn’t labelled. Of course, I got it two years ago on a bargain cone, so it could be a colour they don’t do any more.

  27. HelenHaricot says:

    well, that one def looks blue
