Collab of the Week: Colors!

Welcome to this week's collaboration project on LingWiki! This week's theme is colors!

Looking for the basic colors of the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet), plus brown, black, white, and gray to round things out. Any other colors or shades are welcome, so feel free to add in some of your favorites.

If you're feeling ambitious and don't mind letting your work be used on the site, recordings of pronunciations would be great as well! In the interest of convenience for all involved, recording them as one file is fine; I have the software to break it into separate files for use on the site.

Thanks to all who contributed numbers last week, and to all who're going to help with colors this week!

(For those interested, the original thread on the site can be found here)

Edit: The chart so far can be viewed here!
