As a Brazilian I thought it was very funny that green is not positive and red is the super positive color in China. Because you see, the Brazilian flag has the predominant color as green. And today conservatives that see communism everywhere say things like, "Our flag will never be red", and accuse the military that didn't take part in the attempted far-right coup of 2022 of being "watermelon" (green on the outside- which would be good, patriots- but red on the inside- meaning communists, bad). But the funny things is that the name BRASIL (Brazil) comes from a tree, "Pau Brasil" ("wood Brazil"). "Brazil' comes from "brasa", meaning "ember" and "abrasar" is like "ablaze". Because that tree was used to produce the color RED to dye clothes and was the main thing that the Portuguese initially sold from here. So the Brazilian flag kinda SHOULD be red. Since the Republic there's a modern made up explanation for the colors of our flag. Green the forest, yellow the gold (and all the minerals and stuff underneath the earth), blue the sky (literally in this case) and the banner a river. Like nature and stuff. But in fact it's because the guy that made it that way was inspired by the colors of the house of a noble family of a girl he was wooing and never got. So basically our flag has green instead of red (as it "should" be) because of a simp.
I’m an after-school English teacher in Taiwan and I’ve learned about the meaning of yellow…green… and “colorful” from my older elementary school kids😕 I’m on high alert when I hear certain colors are mentioned in order to make sure they are not talking about inappropriate things in class and when using example sentences I avoid writing stuff like yellow book, green hat, etc. I’ve been meaning to look up color meanings and what other colors I should be wary of so I’m happy to find this video 😅
A young-adult friend in China told me that 网红 is starting to be used more widely than "popular content creator". Now it can mean anything that's popular.
Jade is very special in Chinese culture, so there are several names for it. If you’re talking about the color itself, you can say 碧绿 or 翡翠色. 玉 means jade, but isn’t really used as a color.

What about Jade? It's kinda green. Or is there a different word for specific jade green?
