The Picard ManeuverMandela effect?
bionicjoeyVer- words are often green because of Latin. “Verde” in Italian, “Vert” in French, “Verdant” in English
Yeah, except for vermilion which comes from latin vermis and means worm.
Ricky RigatoniVermillion is such a pretty word to mean worm colored…
I guess a worm can be cute if you give it a bow to wear.
But worms are brown.
Actually worms are transparent but they eat dirt, so they’re brown.

Googled it. It wasn’t because of worms in general. It was from Vermiculus which is the diminutive of Vermis but also was how they called a very specific worm, at some point in time the only way they knew where to get red pigments from was by crushing this worm.
There are plenty of pink and red worms out there. And grey. And some green. A few blue.
