Other than red, white, and black, all other colours are described as the colour of a common object. So the following colours are described as “Rangi ya _________” which means “Colour of ________”.
Blue
Rangi ya buluu (Colour of buluu – a popular bleach that is blue in colour)
Sky Blue
Rangi ya samawati (Colour of the sky)
Green
Rangi ya kijani (Colour of a leaf)
Brown
Rangi ya kahawia (Colour of coffee)
Yellow
Rangi ya manjano (Colour of manjano – a yellow coloured flower)
Gray
Rangi ya kijivu (Colour of ash)
Pink
Rangi ya waridi (Pink Colour – colour of a rose)
Purple
Rangi ya zambarau (Colour of a fruit that is purple in colour, known as Jamun, Java plum, or Indian blackberry in English)
Quite educative.

Asanteni sana kwa kutufundisha aina za rangi katika rugha ya Kiswahili! Lakini kuna aina nyingine nisizojua na nadhani mtaendelea kutuonyesha aina nyingine. Njia hii ya kufundisha kwa kutumia mtandao, ni njia nzuri ya kukuza na kueneza lugha ya Kiswahili. Ninawapenda nyinyi nyote, na ninawatakia heri na fanaka!!!
