Favorite color? - just curious.

A little piece of scientific trivia.
These colors are the ones that most languages have words (ie. basic color terms) for - and empirical studies show (Berlin, Kay:1969) that there exists a hierarchy. If a language has a word for blue it also has a word for the colors listed to the left in the figure - but not necessarily a word for the colors listed to the right. You can say, in a way, that red is thus a more basic or universal color than blue is, because there are more languages that have a word for red than there are for blue. Interesting..

What's your favorite color? 

Mine are red and green.
