Talk:Cerise (color)

Pronunciation
The pronunciation given, ce·rise: se-rs, -rez, is just nonsense. This is not to say it's wrong just meaningless. It should be given in IPA (& X-SAMPA). - Jimp 24May05

Cerise is not a real colour. It originated in the highlands of South-Eastern Greece in the mid eighteenth century. Referring to the serenity experienced at twilight on a high-tide on Mount Athens. Cerise therefore refers to the serene feeling experienced when looking down on the Pacific ocean. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.68.217.138 (talk) 10:06, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Cherry red / cherry pink
Someone suggested that "cerise" is "cherry red", which I think is wrong, as it doesn't look like the red of common red cherries, nor does it look like it is "cherry red" "cerise" looks like it is a different shade of red (of pink) from "cherry red" (of red). Yes, I do know that "cerise" means "cherry" in French, but this is English, where borrowed French words can mean completely different things. So if cherry red (color) / cherry red (colour) ever becomes a redirect here, it should be deleted. -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 23:59, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
