@808raised @808raised Well, ao, kuro, shiro are all nouns. But they are usually used an adjective in a sentence. That 'i' converts them to adjectives. Also when you are saying `it was blue...` etc. It helps you convert them to other tenses as well. Such as ao-i becomes ao-katta, if you are saying `it was blue.` You can also make them adverbs by changing that 'i' to 'ku'. Shiro-i becomes 'Shiro-ku' for example.

@808raised

Words change in a different ways when they are used in sentences.

Why is it that sometimes the colors have an extra "i" sound at the end?

Blue: ao - aoi

Black: kuro - kuroi

White: shiro - shiroi?

@Matsuyamanokage All the words shown in the video are noun colors, so you can use them like 赤の犬　Ｏｒ　犬は赤　some of them can also be used an -な adjectives, and some of them have い adjective variants. you can look them up in the dictionary. for example I got no results for みどりい but I did get 茶色い.

@bratzkidzrulz it's pinku or momo iro as in peach color because the peaches in Japan are pink.
