Many colors in si ka in just a few words
Post Body
All the words and phrases here are simple modifiers, which act in the order they appear. This was motivated by this post. Also note that the way colors combine is based on RGB color space, or more generally on how colors combine physically.
| si ka (IPA) | meaning |
|---|---|
| fi | appearance/vision/emitted-light of A |
| fie | (relatively) blue variant of A |
| fia | green variant |
| fio | red |
| fie fie | very blue |
| fie fia | bluish teal |
| fie fio | purple (plum) |
| fia fie | sea green |
| fia fia | very green |
| fia fio | yellow-green |
| fio fie | lavender |
| fio fia | orange |
| fio fio | very red |
| fie fi | blue color of A |
| ku fi | appearance of a thing; light |
| ku fi kuo | a lot of light; white |
| ku fie fi | some blue light |
| ku fie fi kuo | a lot of blue light; bright blue light |
Note: Though some of these may look like fairly long phrases, the limited phonology of si ka allows generous allophony, so for instance the last phrase could be realized as [kəɸjeɸɪkwo].
