Do people just not know what Turquoise is?

Have you seen this? It’s absolutely bonkers. That’s not green!!!!!

Turquoise is green, end of.

😂

Turquoise is clearly a shade of blue. A shade with lots of yellow in it, but still blue.

I am a true neutral and also have a complete chatterbox of an inner voice.

I agree^
I can't have any fun because I'm pulling it apart and questioning the controls being used.

I'm 175 and 59% .......bla di bla.

Did it twice, 180 and 175 and my turquoise is green. Which it is anyway!

Ooh I got 183, bluer than 90% of the population. Fascinating

Turquoise is green for me which sounds about right

I always found it a bit ironic that the Tiffanys box is named the Tiffany Blue Box when it's clearly green.

Tried the panatone one, scored 0. Always suspected my colour assessment was accurate.
Clearly turquoise is a mix of blue and green, with hues at either end being either more blue or green, but if a middle hue then you can't put it in either category.

Scored zero also on the Pantone one.

I just took off “night shift” on my phone and I get a different result on the blue green now!

Mine is 173, blue

That's pretty cool. I'm a photographer/videographer and use photoshop/have to colour grade a lot, so colour recognition is really important! I got 4 so I'm pretty pleased with that when my eyes are tired and it's dark!

Me and my DH often disagree on blue/green.
This test is interesting!

My DD sees it differently with her left/right eyes!
One of her eyes sees colour as a cold version and one is warm hued... I thought she was talking nonsense when she was telling me. But when I looked it up, it's a thing!
So she looks at things with both eyes or one or the other before deciding what she sees!

My quiz said that my turquoise is green, but it was showing a colour I don't recognise as turquoise. Because to me turquoise is blue 🤣
I have so much turquoise jewellery, definitely blue.

I'm a bluey...

Score of zero on other test

I have done it twice on two different device and got entirely opposite results 😂

80% blue and 80% green.

Does everyone agree with the following breakdown...

I did the Pantone test and scored 0, which is apparently a perfect score.

I just did it again but took off night shift and got 0!!

Ooh, forgot I had night shift on!

So now my turquoise is blue, and the blue-green mix up has disappeared from the Pantone thing.

If I had to describe turquoise I’d say ‘bluey-green’ , it’s in the middle to me I think.

Pretty much, but I have no idea what you mean by “arsenic” as a colour. I just think of it as the colour of the metal. I googled and apparently it’s a f&b paint but is it a generally known name for a greeny blue?

Arsenic to me is like a gun-metal to mustard-y yellow.
No blue or green at all?!?

Same! 🤣

This was exactly my score.

The turquoise test is flawed, it just depends on your definition of a word, not how you see colours. This one - the Pantone one - is much better. I struggled a bit with the colours dancing around but finally pressed send on my selection - and amazingly I got a perfect score! At last, something I'm good at.

I think “Cambridge Blue” is green, and yet…
