Color Naming

World Color Survey — 110 languages plus English, real per-chip data English is included from two sources: Lindsey & Brown (2014) — 51 modern American English informants, full 330-chip coverage — and the original Berlin & Kay (1969) English informant, which only marked category boundaries (211/330 chips).

Compare languages

Pick one or more languages. Each renders as a mode map — the most common term speakers gave for every chip — aligned under the real Munsell chips above it.

Add a language outside the WCS (e.g. Berinmo)

Some languages — Berinmo, English, Tsimane’ — were studied separately and aren’t part of the WCS's 110. Paste per-chip data below to add one as an extra panel: row,col,term per line (optionally a 4th count/weight column), starting with # Language name.
