Color: Is it Blue or Green?
 
There are many things about vision differences between us all that I find fascinating. I know from language stuff that blue and green have less color names than most colors in most languages. I think "red" in English has the most variations.

I also believe we see colors differently, we might even be able to match colors but that doesn't mean we "see" the same.

This article has a link out at the bottom to take a blue/green test.

Not quite sure what it means, but my result is:
Your boundary is at hue 175, bluer than 68% of the population. For you, turquoise is green.

When i took again I dont know if the colors had changed or i knew sort of what was coming??

lots of the choices to me we’re not “blue” or “green”

I had the same results as IceBlossom.

  1. Your boundary is at hue 186, bluer than 97% of the population. For you, turquoise is green.
I agree.

Turquoise does not mix with blues!

188 for me. Turquoise is green.

There were many times when I could have gone either way, blue or green. If I took the test again and again I would get a different answer each time. But when I look at "the dress" I clearly see white and gold.

OK ... I played and ...
Your boundary is at hue 168, greener than 85% of the population. For you, turquoise is blue.

There were a few of the panels that to me were neither blue nor green!
I just gave an answer, but did not really agree with what I said because of that.
So what does that say about me?


TBH I have some vision impairments, which already includes how I see some colours.

Sometimes it can be a real brute to me when I am picking quilt fabrics.
Or even buying clothes ... or dressing myself to be coordinated!
arrgghhh!!! :)

As one person made the test as he sees the colors. then I'm not taking it that serious. The few that look green or blue is a choice. It is fun to see everyone's results.

Gosh, I got a 173.

My husband and I always disagree over colors (choosing paint is a nightmare). His turquoise was blue. Mine is green. I would love to see a yellow/orange/red test because that's another one where we always disagree.
