白色

นิรุกติศาสตร์และส่วนประกอบ

The Chinese word 白色 (bái sè) for "white" is composed of two characters: 白 (bái) and 色 (sè). The character 白 originally meant "bright" or "shining", and was often used to describe the color of the sun or the moon. Over time, it came to be used more specifically to refer to the color white. The character 色 (sè) originally meant "appearance" or "form", and was often used to describe the color or texture of an object. When combined together, the characters 白 and 色 form the word 白色, which specifically refers to the color white.
