hi Maria and Rory. Thanks for this great episode! My favorite color is azure. It's the color of the clear sky and it's very calming. My room was painted in azure and I real enjoyed it.😊

[@SuccesswithIELTS]

Oh wow, that must be really pleasant, especially in the dark months! Careful though: " I real enjoyed it." should be " I really enjoy/like it."

[@EmilyaZulfuqarzada-de1yq]

Hii Maria and Rory🙃 I love you so much and I would say that my favourite color is darkness and something like coal ))

[@SuccesswithIELTS]

I think darkness is more a concept than a colour so you could say you like dark colours like that of coal, and that would be more accurate. Hopefully it's useful. =]

my favorite color is blue . cause blue have connotations . when you see the blue , you will think of sky and ocean which make you feel relaxed . it can make you relaxed . ❤

[@SuccesswithIELTS]

This is a great attempt at an answer, and here is some feedback to improve it: "My favorite color is blue, because blue HAS connotations of the sky and ocean which can make you feel relaxed ." Hopefully it's helpful. =]

[@ExcellendBrand]

I really like white and black kind of like the colours I am wearing now actually. And in fact I like they so much and When I was a child, I had a toy of these colours.

[@SuccesswithIELTS]

A good answer, though careful, black and white aren't actually colours (you might mean dark/light). Also, it should be "I like THEM so much" and "I had a toy IN these colours". Hopefully it helps =]

[@bameejooc3930]

Hello Maria and Rory, I've been listen to many episodes of your podcast for almost a month already and I would like to share some of my answers of this episode here 🥰 My favorite color is pink, especially the light tones like Champagne pink, millennial pink and pastel pink. The reason is that those are the color that make me feel delightful whenever I see items with those colors. Whenever I buy my stationeries, pink will always be my first pick. I also think that pink is the color that represents my characteristic very well, because I always share positive vibes to other people 💖 Talking about the relationship of color and the nation or culture In my culture, colors play important roles in how we dress on each day of the week. We have been taught to remember about days in a week by using colors since we were young. For example, yellow represents Monday, Tuesday is pink, Wednesday is green, and so on. In some organizations, people dress themselves by following those colors like in schools. Teachers always wear colorful clothes that match the color of the day🌟 (I'm from Thailand anyway 😆) About the color I dislike. I'm not a big fan of dark-toned colors because when I was a kid, my dad used to read a bedtime story for me and that story was called "Bags of dream". I remembered that dark color bag had nightmare inside so I think that dark colors are scary 😖 even I don't find it scary when I grow up but, I still feel kind of uncomfortable when I have to wear all black or all dark colors 😅

[@norinaffung-lovingtheworld]

excellent ❤My favorite color is pink too, i think i will just take your answer as my answer😂

[@SuccesswithIELTS]

Hi there, these are interesting answers with a lot of great vocabulary and grammar. I really like the use of the words like "tones" and what different colours represent. Some advice though: try not to repeat the question in your answer. For example you said "My favorite color is pink" - this is a missed opportunity to paraphrase and show how you can use a variety of structures. Instead you could try something like "I really like pink...". It's a really simple change that can bring up the score greatly. =]

[@Quranlove-kg3qc]

​@@SuccesswithIELTS thanks for advice❤

[@user-jq2vi8vo5j]

My favourite colour is black too , because my life is charged with majorities changes 😅

[@SuccesswithIELTS]

Excellent choice, though what do you mean by "life is charged with majorities changes"?
