For example, can you describe green without saying tree or grass; can you describe blue without mentioning the sky?
The only one I can think of is red, which is a hot colour.
The reason I ask is, since there is no way to prove whether or not we are looking at the same colour (e.g. what you perceive as a green tree, I might see as a yellow tree, but I recognise your yellow as my green), we can not agree on one of the most basic principles of life. If we can't even agree what colour a tree is, how can we agree on anything?
