Fabulouzjoseph: Nice try. but you're left with only two options to chose from in this case. So its either one or the other. How is "Orange" an ambiguous word? Its a very simple word that even babies can understand. So?? ![]() |
Re: Very Hilarious But Begs For The Correct Answer!!! Say If You Know by Nobody: 10:43am On May 31, 2020 |
Eulalia:Ambigous means it has more than one use as a word it does not have a single meaning and usage. You can use orange to refer to the colour and you can also use it to refer to the fruit. 3 Likes |

Gold is (a) a metal (b) colour The appearance of gold produced the idea of the colour. One is a cause, the other is the effect. I will go for the option "metal" Likewise the better answer to yours is fruit because the colour "orange" is coined from the appearance of an orange when it is ripe. 22 Likes 1 Share |

Fabulouzjoseph: Ok you mean like having many interpretations to it? Ok I get. But in this case, you're to chose only one. Reasons you have options a, and b. Of course you can t have two answers and from the your explanation you're choosing both answers. |

Orange is a fruit before it is use to describe a colour Just as berry is a fruit before it could be use to describe a colour In simple terms the colour orange is named after the appearance of the ripe orange fruit. The word comes from the Old French orange, from the old term for the fruit, pomme d'orange |

Re: Very Hilarious But Begs For The Correct Answer!!! Say If You Know by Nobody: 2:31pm On May 31, 2020 |
Nicklaus619: Yeah! Correct! So we can say since the color originated from the shade of the fruit which has been in existence with the name "Orange", that makes "orange">= fruit, the correct answer. ![]() Thanks guys for the breakdown. Very insightful. ![]() 1 Like |

Eulalia:orange is a colour,the collective scientific name of such is CITRUS. when this citrus fruit is ripe it takes the colour of orange that is why people call it orange fruit instead of citrus as scientific name 1 Like 1 Share |

NDSMELODY: Wao.. Another contradictory analysis. So, if we are to look at it this way, are you saying color existed before fruits? Cos now you're going into the science aspect of it. Which existed first? Mind you citrus is a botanical generic name for orange family and has nothing to do with this question as we are not after classification of fruits. If you can tell which existed before the other, I think there lies your answer. |

Why can't there be two answers? Because you said so? Well, if you must, by the origin of the word, the word 'orange' was first used to refer to the fruit. The color was initially referred to as 'yellow-red' or 'red-yellow' 1 Like |

Novemberaura: Nope. Not the same. The options in the question are not of the same class or nature but your options are of the same class. So it doesn't correlate with the puzzle at hand. |
