Orange (colour)
The colour orange occurs between red and yellow in the visible spectrum at a wavelength of about 620-585 nanometres. It is the same colour as the fruit from which it gets its name.
Oft-cursed word of poets, having no rhyming partner in English until the advent of quorange (though door-hinge is a close approximation).
