ABSTRACT: This article explores the collocations of color-designating adjectives in their nominative and
figurative meanings, examining their morphological structure and the nuanced relationship
between color and language. The study investigates how color-designating words are
morphologically classified and how their forms contribute to the expression of color-related
concepts. The analysis encompasses simple color words, derived color words formed through
affixation, compound color words, and phrasal color terms. Additionally, the article delves into
the figurative use of color adjectives and their metaphorical associations, highlighting how colors
go beyond their literal meanings to evoke emotions and convey abstract concepts. By examining
the morphological structures of color-designating adjectives and their usage in nominative and
figurative contexts, the study enhances our understanding of the intricate interplay between
color, language, and meaning.
