    The colour was named after the fruit, so how did he know it was orange if he didn’t know it was AN orange?

    The French don’t have a word for ‘orange’. They call it ‘dark yellow’.

    Some naming conventions only work once.

    Reminds me of the TV series Taxi, in which Christopher Lloyd asked a similar question. _If an orange is an orange, why isn’t a banana a yellow and an apple a red . . _ ? At which point his father, Victor Buono gave up all hope of ever understanding his errant son.

    Orange hair is called Red because the word Orange didn’t exist.
