Question................If you call an orange "an orange", why don't you call a banana "a yellow"?
Why do they call Port Harcourt "The Garden City"?...... Becauase they can't spell Stramash.

The word orange is a bad french/english interpretation of the orignal sanskrit word Naranja that stuck(the spanish got it right), the colour was
previously refered to as saffron.

I'm just wild about Saffron, and Saffron's wild about me.
They call it mellow yellow.
