Before you say a color name, determine whether the noun you're describing is masculine or feminine. Pronounce the word like in parentheses, but try to look at its actual spelling. Red - Rojo (RO-ho) Orange - Anaranjado (un-a-ran-HA-do) Yellow - Armarillo (ar-mar-EE-yo)
Determine the gender of the applicable noun and pronounce it as shown in parentheses. For purple, "morado" will be a darker shade than "violeta." Green - Verde (VARE-day) Blue - Azul (a-SZOOL) Purple - Morado (more-A-Do) or Violeta (vee-o-LET-a) Pink - Rosa (ROSE-a)
Decide the noun's gender and pronounce as directed. For the different browns, both are always acceptable but generally speaking, "morena" will be used in Spain and "castaño" in Latin America. Black - Negro (NEG-ro) White - Blanco (BLAN-co) Gray - Gris (greece) Brown - Morena (mo-RAY-na) or Castaño (cas-TAN-yo)
