The rainbow has colors:
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet (ROY G BIV)
These are "pure colors" caused by very narrow ranges of wavelengths of light.
Hues are mixtures of a variety of different wavelenths, and so are not pure colors. Things like pink or purple (different from violet), apricot, and so on are hues.
