Even if those six were the actual primary and secondary colours, it wouldn't be necessary to have a primary word for each. You can refer them by hue, or by referring to some object.

But you don't - that's why languages lacking these words run into issues as described in the article.

The wheel that you're implying by those six colours is mostly an artistic "distortion" of the 18th century.

But isn't there a good reason it was distorted that way?

Of course some colours take up much more or much less of the visible colour spectrum, but that doesn't mean they have more significance to us.

Like red taking up over five times more of the colour spectrum than yellow doesn't mean that all these reds need to be named. Most red tones are hardly distinguishable to most people. Yellow and red on the other hand can be distinguished with ease.

You won't run into the issue of differently coloured traffic lights in english countries; because while the traffic lights might use slightly different shades of green, they don't use drastically different colours - because we properly named them.

I mean, you really should have words for at least 6 distinct colours, those being red, yellow, blue, green, orange and purple.

Additional words for stuff like brown may be left out, but those six colours should be named.

The point of the comment is to point out the common misconception that the value of one [token of a currency] has anything to do with the strength of a currency. As described in the comment, the value of a singular token of a currency can be chosen arbitrarily.

This, of course, doesn't mean the map is factually incorrect.

I do have an idea how "a difficult to kill, unwanted growth" could be put into relation to a war fueled by hatred.

In LibreTube, you can go to

Settings > Instance > Disable Piped proxy

I only ever had issues with the piped proxy, not with the app itself.

None of them have to.

Was soll "nichts offiziell anerkanntes" heißen? Taiwan in sich ist "nichts offiziell anerkanntes" (in Deutschland).

I would assume that anyone negatively affected by sexism / gender roles (nearly everyone) has thought about being a different gender.

Yeah I'm not saying hCaptcha is good. It just shows that new captcha systems can become popular, and that Google's hold isn't as strong as it may seem.

Fuckin' DNA sucks sometimes right?

I wouldn't kick you out of bed based on appearance. Lack of enthusiasm and effort? Yes.

Ladies, TL;DR: Enthusiasm and willingness to try trump almost all physical qualities.

You made that sound like she's super ugly
