How do You explain Color to a Blind Person?

Answer 1

There's no way, sorry

But you may use adjectives and nouns to describe your feeling when you see a color, such as:

Hot, fire when you see red - think he understands what hot means

Cool, water when you see blue... isn't it cool?

Snow is white and see if you can get him some snowy white snow... or tell him about X'mas time, a White X'mas

For green, hand him a leave, etc etc

BTW my fave colors are grey and blue
