At a young age, we learnt about the primary colors red, blue and yellow. Then, when we grew older, we learnt about secondary and tertiary colors that we will get by mixing the three primary ones. But most of us aren't exposed to hundreds of shades; some are obviously named, some not so. For example, we'd assume a color called 'avocado' to be a greenish hue, but what about the color 'cerulean'?
This quiz will test your knowledge of color shades. Look at the color in each question and try to identify the exact name of the shade! Don't worry, you have 1 out of 3 chances to get it right, so try it out and learn more about colors!

You are the Color Novice. You don’t know these colors too well, but it’s alright, they are very exotic names! Brighten up your day by learning more about the different shades you probably haven’t heard you of. Hey, the knowledge might come in handy when you’re picking the next color of your house walls or when editing your Instagram photos!

8/15 never heard of most complete guesses, colours are so very different to each person,don’t mess with fancy names it’s either blue green red orange etc to me, knew some but what 1 person may say it’s orange another may call it red, difficult quiz to test people’s perceptions.
Either my screen is wrong, or the names of some of these colors are. Malachite stones are a much deeper green, Ecru is a softer off-white, and Mauve has more pink than purple in it, and also more gray than was in the color shown.
