The six basic color terms of Kenlin, my current project that will probably just be for later conlangs to be based on as a family. The Terraria sprites are examples of each term, and the color blocks next to the English words are from blending the examples together.

The words come from Proto-Kartvelian, -Celtic, -Japonic, -Turkic, -Mongolic, and -Hellenic respectively. This is a romanization since i don't have a font for the script i made.___

I love the little sprites to showcase the colours!

    I was going to just translate all the English color words i could think of, but i thought a better way to define basic color terms would be looking at pictures of things and sorting those. I used Terraria sprites because they're small and fit into a table like this.
