Humans share the same response to the certain colours. For instance, red has very high visibility. Red often been associated with energy, war and danger. It is an emotionally intense colour and can enhance human metabolism, increase respiration rate and raise blood pressure. However, I don´t think an environment with a lot of blue makes me sad; perhaps a white one. That´s such amazing subject.
BBC is doing excellent work especially those who are not afford of paying money for learning English i really extol your efforts thanks a bunch 😊

Wow, this is a cool video and from here I know that every color has a very meaningful meaning. Apart from that, from this video I learned new interesting words.
Red, black, green define me and i really like defining my style by using certain colors! It's like choosing what to present your style with ❤️
Thanks .
you are doing excellent job in this channel , all your videos are amazing ,very helpful and educational specially for some of us that we cannot afford private lessons or we don;t have enough time to attend structured classes.Thank you a lot for all your efforts. As about today's lesson was wonderful and it's entirely truth that colour are affecting our mood and also they can represent our personality, People with confidence quite often are choosing bold ,bright colours whereas people who lacks condifence could easier go to more dark colours. Thank you one more time - looking forward for a new one :)
We are glad you find them helpful! Keep up the hard work learning English! 💪🏽
Thank you/
It's all about taste and preferences as the video says. In my opinion, my favorite colour is the yellow, because alludes to the sun and the sun (God) for me its the hope for all of us in this life shining over the humanity. Everyday is a new beggining and the sun still shines over all us. Blessings!

It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

Colour ? Or color
Color is spelled in the United States and colour is most probably in other English-speaking counties.
It is true, the multicolor flag doesn´t represent anything and it causes me discomfort. It doesn´t represent my culture, my homeland, my faith, my family, my traditions, and cultural heritage
I think is yellow
Geogina speaks too blur !
