"Laranja" - the fruit
"Cor-de-laranja" - "orange colour". But everyone shortens it to "laranja" as well.

2. Only when reffering to the color we say Narancssárga.
Otherwise the fruit is just Narancs. Sárga is the color called.

Yes
Fruit = Kinaäpple
Colour = Orange
Color - Oranj
Fruit - Portocală
Some people do say portocaliu for the color though.
>his grammar is so primitive that he has to use the same word for a noun and and an adjective
The fruit - oráiste
The colour - flannbhuí ("redyellow")
I think people are in the habit of using 'oráiste' for the colour now because of English
Portocala - fruit
Portocaliu (translates to orange-ish) - color
Brazilian oranges haven't orange colour
Do you eat shit?
1. Castillian

yes
Orange as fuit is female in gender ARANCIA, as a color is male ARANCIO or ARANCIONE
fruit = sinaasappel
color = oranje
Apelsinas - fruit
Oranžinė/morkvinė - colour
Morkvinė is based off carrots but has fallen out of usage.

Orange and orange
written the same but pronounced differently
The colour is more or less pronounced like the french orange
The fruit is pronounced identical but with a schwa (ə) at the end
Alternatively there is orangefarben which literally means orange coloured
Forgot, you can also call the fruit Apfelsine
>sinaasappel
fucking kek, why is your language so retarded?

Why do euros call everything an apple? Potatoes, oranges, what next?
Polish
fruit Pomarańcza
color Pomarańczowy
no
>mMmm, a new fruit-ish thing. Let's call it.. [thinks up a new compound word]
In Dutch you also have oogappel (eye appel). You know, the person who is the apple of your eye.
And granaatappel (grenade apple)
Let's call it an apple.
Did "Apple" generally just refer to all fruit originally, kind of like "deer" in english?
This.
Orange=Appelsin
Color=Orange.
Probably.
Pijnappel (pineapple). The fruit of a pine tree.
We learned that the color was "anaranjado" and the fruit was "naranja."
Burger education claims another victim
Note this is not an ananas.
At least we don't say "pineapple" haha what a stupid word
nope
This.
Naranjas=fruit
Anaranjado=color
the orange is Appelsin
the color is Oransje
Yes.
Color: Oransje (loanword)
Fruit: Appelsin (literally "Chinese apple", like in most Germanic languages).
Literally 7 seconds apart. Norwegian hivemind :DDDDD
ORANGE'D
1. Invader's Spanish
2. Yes. Fruit: Naranja. Color: Anaranjado.
anaranjado means that looks like the colour orange but it's not.
Mesma coisa por cá.
Some other colors also end in -ado:
Rosado "pink"
Morado "purple"
Also, in my country, brown is called "café", not "marrón".
What do you have to do with this?
orange is the generalized fruit
there is mandarine tangerine citrus etc etc so the generalized version has the color and the specific word for the types
But seriously, why do so many languages call their oranges for Portugal? I know it's the same in Arabic.
WE WUZ TRADERZ AND SHIT, so they gave it our name because they thought we invented them.
I think someone else calls Parrots like that as well.
>As Portuguese merchants were presumably the first to introduce the sweet orange to some regions of Europe, in several modern Indo-European languages the fruit has been named after them. Some examples are Albanian portokall, Bulgarian пopтoкaл (portokal), Greek πορτοkάλι (portokali), Macedonian portokal, Persian پرتقال (porteghal), Turkish portakal and Romanian portocală.[29][30] Related names can be found in other languages, such as Arabic البرتقال (bourtouqal), Georgian ფორთოხალი (p'ort'oxali), Turkish portakal and Amharic birtukan.[29] Also, in some of the Italian regional languages (e.g. Neapolitan), an orange is portogallo or purtuallo, literally "(the) Portuguese (one)", in contrast to the Italian arancia.
It's the traders, wherever a product is from they from they give it that name because they were lazy fucks and over time it sticks, turkeys for example we call "hindi".
Yes
Apelsin = the fruit
Orange = the color
>Brazilian Portuguese
>Color: Laranja
>Fruit: Laranja
> Nope.avi
>kinaäpple
Häng dig, snälla
Nobody uses "marrón"? Here it´s used interchangebly, though "café" is more prominent
1. Czech
2. Yes:
fruit - pomeranč
color - oranžová
Our word for turkey is "peru". The common folk believed turkeys were imported from Peru.
How can you distinguish oranges from lemons then?
We call them "pavo" and we call the peacock "pavo real".
I don't think I have ever heard a Salvadoran say the word "marrón" in my life. We use "castaño" or "almendra", and "café" as well for the eye color. But never ever "marrón".
We use castaño for hair/eye color
Salvadorans call bananas "guineos" because we believe they come from there.
Brazil is in the tropics; citrus fruit have a habit of doing that in tropical climates because the plants are really not adapted for that, they're subtropical. Anyone who's tried planting citrus fruit in Hawaii will tell you that.
I have heard colour café some times, it's not as common as marrón, but still used.
Are you perhaps from Andalusia? We share some words with people from Southern Spain.
nope, Cat. And now that I remember cafe con leche is also used, to obviously refer to a lighter brown
