I'm trying to understand the English terms for certain colours in UK, USA and AUstralia, because I keep getting confused.
this is what I have now;
(fat is official colour in that country, but I made one misstake in de Dutch column I see now)
I still have a lot of questions;
- On the German website Braun (brown) and chocolate are two different colours (but no pics of chocolate unfortuantely). Is chocolate a lighter overall brown colour then overall brown?
- what is khaki?
- what is bali white? (also found on DE website)
- what is rehfarbig? The fawn & white (not american one) is apparently rehfarbig. Which colour is that? Since fawn in german is erbgelb? Confusing.
AU:
- What is cinnamon?
- What is harlequin?
UK:
- What is welsh harlequin?
- What is lavender?
- What is abecot ranger?
All countries;
When is one silver. Is there one kind of silver in that country with the name 'silver'? Since I also found an UK website with chocolate-silver, tortoise-silver? So confuzzled.
In some pictures harlequin looks like silver..is this correct?
Saxony = apricot trout? In what English languages?
Are there duskies, that have an own name? Or does it allways end with dusky. And what is Dusky in German. I'm feeling I'm having a big struggle ahead with dusky/light phased still..
Some websites;
DE: http://www.laufis.de/farben/
AU: https://www.cluckinggoodpoultry.com.au/indianrunnerduckbreedstandards.html (but no pictures)
NL: with question; are these two ducks the same colour? What is the name of the duck below? https://www.kleindiermagazine.nl/KMonline/KM201107/km.html/files/assets/basic-html/page53.html
NL; with question; What colour is this? In english? Is it in german rehfarbig? https://www.frieslandshow.nl/kleuren-watervogels/kleuren-bij-de-eenden/bruin-spreeuwkop/
Thank you.
