I've heard that both T and D sounds are related to each other, and that in many languages there are lots of this kind of cognate where a T or D sound is changed for the other one. Moreover, I've been told that in English they have the exact same way to be pronounced, but the T sound is unvoiced while the D sound is voiced. Anyway, if these assumptions of mine are true, this would be explained by French dropping the last E and then changing the D sound for the T sound, and voilà, that's my theory about how vert was born.

In Italian we also have: “Vermiglio” and “Scarlatto” for red but they are not wildly used. “Celeste” is another common shade of light blue (specifically the color of the sky). “Viridio” is a latinism for green. “Moro” and “Bruno” respectively means black and brown and are used a lot to describe skin complexions or hair color. These words are not used a lot in everyday conversations, but they are used quite a lot in art. I clearly remember my art teacher in high-school telling me “There are no “marroni” (browns), only “bruni” and “terre” (earths).”

Wow. In Spanish we use moreno, a cognate to moro, to describe someone of dark complexion, specifically of African descent. Since in America you'll get attacked for saying negro (legit how we say black in Spanish), I tend to say moreno in public when talking about black people. Btw, in Spanish, the word moro means Moors, which I am assuming that's how the term came to fruition, since North African Moors had darker complexion than Southern Europeans due to the constant heat of the Saharan Desert.

There are other Italian synonyms that are a lot more similar to those latin words: 1) Flavus (Yellow) can be translated in Italian as Fulvo (but it's used more as "Dark Yellow"). 2) Caeruleus (Blue) can be also translated as Ceruleo. 3) Roseus (Pink) can be translated as Róseo. 4) Brunneus/Fuscus (Brown) can be translated as Bruno/Fosco (but we usually use "Fosco" not only for "Brown" but for "Dark colors" in general). 5) Purpureus (Purple) can be also translated as Purpureo. 6) Russus (Red) is already pretty similar to Rosso, but there is also the synonym Rubro that is similar to Ruber. And here a clarification: 1) Lux in Italian becomes "Luce" because, in latin, the declination is "Lux, Lucis, Luci, Lucem, Lux, Luce" and Italian words are usually more similar to every case other than Nominative and Vocative (that are often different for latin words of the third declination).

Written using Cyrillic, it was sent by Lupu Neacșu, a merchant from Câmpulung, Wallachia (now Romania) to Johannes Benkner, the mayor of Brassó, Kingdom of Hungary (now Brașov, Romania), warning him about the imminent attack of the Ottoman Empire on the city of Belgrad and its implications to regional politics.

We don't use "gris" in Portuguese - although we refer to a grey hair as "grisalho". From where I come in Northeastern Portugal, when a traditional brick oven is at its highest temperatures, we say that it is "rojo" - not pronounced as in Spanish, but kind of the same meaning, since the bricks become red. There's also the word "rubro" when a metal is incandescent (thus, also red). "Marrom" is not used in Portugal; the word used is "castanho". Also, "purpúreo" is an adjective; the word used is "púrpura". "Violeta" is also used, but for a lighter purple. Funny enough, the word "roxo" is very similar to the Spanish "rojo" for "red", and that's related also to the purple colour an incandescent metal has. "Tenebris" in Portuguese can be found as "Trevas", that also refers to darkness.

There are some misleading things on Romanian here, some words mentioned are neologisms (like "gri", which comes from French) although they may have Latin equivalents, like the mentioned "cenușiu" (gray), while some directly-Latin words present in Romanian are omitted. So: - "bleu" ("light blue") comes from French - and is even pronunced French-like! - but has a somewhat different meaning than the directly-Latin "albastru" - "roz" (pink) comes directly from French, like the word for rose ("roza"), while the original Romanian word for that flower is "trandafir" (from Greek), which gave the color "trandafiriu" (pale red more than pink) - "maro" comes directly from the French "maron" (chestnut), no matter older genealogy; the Romanian original is "căpriu/căprui" (goat-colored), "castaniu" (chestnut-like - "castana"=chestnut is of Latin origin) or "cafeniu" (cofee-like), where "cafea"=cofee comes from Turkish - "brun" comes from French and has a somewhat different meaning (darker, greyish brown, or dark-haired and dark-skinned) - "violet" is French too (but "purpuriu" is Latin) - "turcoaz" came from French - "deschis" just means open (like you say "open road" but also the path is "clear"), and "închis" means closed, like Italian "chiuso"=closed & "dischiuso/schiuso"=open - "închis" (does come from Latin "inclusus" but that doesn't mean "included", but has the same sense as in Romanian - closed, shut up or in, confined) is used for colors meaning "darker" or "somewhat darker"; for really dark color you use "întunecat", from Latin *intunicāre - tunicō (“cover with a tunic”); interestingly, this was mingled semantically and morphologically with the word “întuneric” (darkness) from Latin tenebricus < tenebris/tenebra (întuneca=to become dark, întunecat=dark-colored, întuneric=darkness). "Tenebros" was taken from French "tenebreux" with the same meaning (scary, darkness-like), and the French neologism "sumbru" is also used.

[@pavelandel1538]

I wonder whether the archaic forms/grammar in Romanian stem from the fact that the language has been separated from the rest of the Romance speaking world for so long - or - whether the Balkans are actually the area, where the proto-Italic language evolved and so the Romanians were just another proto-old-Italic group, that just never left for Italian peninsula. Why would isolated Carpathian mountaineers just drop their mother tongue after a relatively short Roman rule in Dacia, when the Greeks or Albanians, who were under Roman control for much longer, never did? Also, there is a linguistic tendency to simplify the grammar and pronunciation, when a new language is adopted by a nation originally speaking a different tongue, which is the opposite of what you see comparing Italian and Romanian (grammar closer to original form). It's funny how eager Romanians always are to be accepted in the larger Latin family, when in reality, they might be the old Daddy in the Latin family tree. I know this contradicts the generally accepted theories about Romanian origin, but I find it intriguing.
