Absolutely.  What I see and understand to be green might not be at all the same color you see and understand to be green, but we both recognize it in the same objects and both agree to the name of the color. Ther is no way to tell really whether what I see is what you see.

I agree that this can be subjective. For example, they say that when it comes to flowers, each color signifies a meaning. Red = Warmth & Love. White=Peace. Yellow=Jealousy. Purple= Elegance and so on. As for the colors on flags red= blood, war, violence. Green=richness. Black= courage and so forth.

Try this one, NO colors, that would be freaky. everything just black or white, no "in-betweens"!

Uh, I'm not smart on this, so I'm guessing here, but...\nSince different frequencies and wavelengths are what determines what color is being reflected, there has to be some way to quantify the amount of each in different hues of different colors.  Does that even make sense?  I don't know...

How can you prove the color Blue is Blue? what if it is really yellow, and all along we have been calling it Blue?\n\nSome one must have tought me that Blue is Blue, and I never stoped calling it blue. It's blue because no one every proved other wise. It's what I was raised with, calling it Yellow would sound funny to me and others, no one would understand me.\n\nI think we are born, we learn every thing we can, and we then put the peices in as we can understand them. \nI dont know if I am real or not, but I choose to beleive I am, for what reason is beyong me, perhaps I was raised to think I am real, and so I am. I cant prove it either way, Im just comfortable thinking that I am.

This is partially true, partially false.\n\nWith regards to purple, most people would agree that purple light is always some mixture of reddish and bluish light.   I.e. you can imagine two knobs, one raising and lowering the red and the other raising and lowering the blue, and you can get many shades of purple.  There may be other hues added in as well, but there is *always* red and blue (if not, we rarely call it purple).\n\nIn other words, if we didn't have the word "purple" in our language, we would probably call it something like "reddish blue" or "bluish red".\n\nBut we cannot do the same with red and green.   We have a very hard time imagining, or pointing to, a color that is "reddish green".  If given only a red and a green knob, the result will be make the color more or less neutral (gray or white).\n\nLikewise with blue and yellow.  (Some people will respond that green is bluish yellow, but that's because many people are used to mixing pigments on paper ... we're talking about mixing lights.)\n\nThese two pairs,  red-green and blue-yellow, are *fundamental* pairs.  We call them "oppositional".  (There is also a third opponent pair ... light-dark ... but as we're just talking about color here, we can ignore that one for the moment.)  This is called the "opponent theory" of color vision and is associated with Ewald Hering.\n\nSo in that sense we can call these four colors "fundamental" hues"  because all color we see can be mixed using knobs of these four colors.\n\nPeople will also wonder about the red-green-blue primaries, and the fact that we know we have red, green, blue photoreceptors in our eyes.  These would also seem to be fundamental hues (as evidenced by the computer monitor on which you are reading these words ... that monitor is able to simulate a wide range of colors using just red, green, and blue).\n\nThese two theories ... the "opponent theory" and the "trichromatic theory" competed for a long time until we found a way to reconcile them.  Basically, we have three types of photoreceptors, but they are wired in a way in our retina, that by the time signals are travelling down our optic nerve, the red-green are antagonistic signals as are yellow-blue.

colours only mean you perceive things differently. if you were colour blind it may make things harder for you if you had to determine colours. otherwise, it probably has very little significance.

I'm colour blind actually....I have a very hard time with shades and red-greens.  I see colour differently than you do.  Or don't see as the case may be.

Seems like a pretty interesting riddle. I am so sorry that it didn't get the response it deserved. I think you should have placed it in the "Jokes and Riddles" sub-category under the category "Entertainment & Music". It would have garnered an immense response there.\n\nAnyways, let me try here-\n4 is golden,eh? I think here 4 somehow refers to "silence"\nNow, 5 is silence. Ummm.... what should be 5? I give up.\n\nGood Riddle. Try posting it in the "Jokes & Riddles" category.

On a more scientific basis they just discovered that humans have a wide varity in the ratio of color receptors in the eye.  Some have mostly red color receptors, some have lots of green and blue.  I'm guessing that this could affect how we individually precieve color and influence our preferences.  Anyways, you might find the "dewey color system" interesting and it might offer you more insight.  http://www.deweycolorsystem.com/

What are you blind? it's yellow.....whoa didn't actually expect other answers to be yellow
