Probably because it's similar to verde
Much more similar to "vermelho" which is "red" in Portuguese
Vermiglio is also red in italian, maybe verdaccio
I mean, why would the other two spend three or more syllables on a primary color, anyway?
this is why Italians have to speak so quickly, and supplement their words with gestures.
Why use many noise when few noise do trick?
Like blu-u-u?
Rojo is Spanish for red. Bermellón is Spanish for vermilion.
Yup. My first thought, "Because it sounds like verdant."
That seems to be the verdict so far
Yes, verde good.
Also sounds like chameleon, which are most commonly pictured in green.
