In some countries, red is an angry colour. To “see red” means to get very angry. But in China, red is a happy colour. We wear red clothes at Chinese New Year and give money in red envelopes.
Yellow and orange are cheerful summer colours. Sunshine looks orange, and golden yellow is the colour of a sandy beach.
Blue is the colour of the sky and the sea. In English, you “feel blue” when you are sad. Green sometimes means safety. At traffic lights around the world, the green light means “go”.
Purple is a colour for wealth and success. In the USA, the Purple Heart is a famous medal given to very brave soldiers, so purple means bravery.
