DEGREES OF COMPARISON OF ADJECTIVES In English, as in Russian, ...
The perception of color is connected with the perception of the world around us. Therefore, the designations of various colors and their shades inevitably find their reflection in the language system. However, in different languages, color naming and, accordingly, color rendering are not produced in the same way. The German vocabulary used to convey colors has its own national characteristics and is naturally connected with the history and traditions of the German people.
To transfer color to German it is necessary to get acquainted with the main vocabulary related to the color scheme, as well as peripheral color vocabulary - additional color shades. Each individual primary color forms a kind of core, the center of the family, around which words are grouped that are directly related to this color and convey all its various shades.

The color naming in German can be based on a wide variety of motifs associated with almost any area of human life and activity, as well as the surrounding nature and wildlife. The designation of shades of the main color can be transmitted by comparing the base color with the color of certain trees, fruits, landscapes, seasons, substances, minerals, proper names, drinks, etc. (for example, tannengrün - a dark green color comparable to the color of spruce needles; tomatenrot - dull red, comparable to the color of ripe tomatoes, maigrün - bright green, reminiscent of the color of fresh spring greens, safari - the color of the sun-scorched African savannah, etc.). In the situation described, adjectives denoting color can be both simple and complex (consisting of two stems). Compound adjectives can also be formed by adding two stems, the first of which is the adjective light (hell-), dark (dunkel-), medium saturation, intensity (mittel-), deep (tief-), and the second is the color, the shade of which conveys this compound adjective, for example: dark red - dunkelrot; light green - hellgrün; blue medium intensity - mittelblau.

The palette of the color picture of the surrounding world is very complex and diverse. The transfer of various color shades in a large number of cases is directly related to the images of specific objects with which certain colors are associated in the human mind, for example: fuchsia color - Fuchsia, classic denim color - Jeansblau, coffee color - Kaffeebraun, eggplant color - Aubergine, deep dark -blue color (color of the night) - Mitternachstblau, etc.
In general, regarding the vocabulary associated with the transfer of color in German, we can say that it is much more specific, that is, there are much more lexical units for the transfer of color shades in German than in Russian. In this sense, the Russian language is prone to a more abstract rendering of colors and their shades, and for the most part tends to use colors from the main (basic) spectrum in almost any life situation.

Collections often skip over, which sometimes amaze with the thematic number of words. Well, for example, a list of animal names. AT real life we can immediately name somewhere around 10-15 of the most commonly used animals in our language, but other, less noticeable creatures remain in the shadows.
And naturally, we will not be able to name them in any other foreign language. You can also remember about the selection with the names of fruits. I do not argue, you know most of the names, but some just go by the wayside, which is not very good if you work for any fruit company. It's about not only about fruits, remember at least the names of stationery in your target language (selection) and you will understand what else you have to learn and learn.
Today we will be exploring another similar collection that will become a useful source of information for many fans. Before moving on to the study, what are all the flowers (Blumen) that you know in German? I think the first place will be a rose (Rosa), a lily (Lilie), isn't it? You will be surprised, but the list of colors (Blumen) in German is as long as in our native language.
Naturally, we will not study any exotic names there, but only the most popular and frequently used ones.
