Yellow


Yellow is the color of gold, butter, or ripe lemons. It is within the spectrum of visible light, with a wavelength of 570-590 nm (525-505 THz.) The word yellow comes from the Old English word geolu, geolwe, meaning "yellow, or yellowish." It was derived from the Proto-Germanic word gelwaz.
