很难诶，难道lz要写论文？我只能找到一点。。希望对lz有点帮助。要是能再找到就再补充哈。（都是网上的资源）先说想到的第三点。a white lie 指“不怀恶意的谎言”，blue film指不健康的电影，Yellow Pages（黄页电话查号簿）和中文的“黄色书”不一样。青[qing]:可以指绿色（green），如“青椒”（green peppe）；可以指蓝色，如“青天”（blue Sky）；也可以指黑色，如“青布”（black cloth）。 美国人谈到皮肉受伤时说be brised black and blue, 而中国人则说“被打得青一块，紫一块”。若直译就成了：be beaten blue and Purple。red gold：纯金。红糖：brown sugar 红茶：black tea 红榜：honour roll 红豆：love pea 红运：good luck 红利：dividend 红事：wedding 。green-eyed：嫉妒/眼红 white money：银币 white elephant：无用而累赘的东西 white crow：罕见的事物（lz这些都是在网上找到的，写论文的时候注意点哦。偶最近也要写论文了，忙着找资料啊。）捷克人视红色三角为有毒标志，土耳其人将绿色三角形商标视为免费商品。阿拉伯人从来不系绿领带，法国人从不带红、蓝、白三种颜色相间的领带，荷兰人忌讳橙色领带。在与西班牙人打交道时，以穿黑色皮鞋为宜，切忌穿橙色皮鞋。目前，国外许多工厂企业都用红色表示“火”、“停”，用于消防设施，以绿色表示“安全”，用于太平门、急救站，在法国，色彩已成为指挥生产的一种手段。由于美元纸币是绿颜色的，所以green在美国也指代“钱财、钞票、有经济实力”等意义.在英语中绿色还用来表示没有经验、缺乏训练、知识浅薄等意思,就如我们称新手为"greenhand".黄色在英语和汉语中的引申含义差别比较大。在英语中，yellow可以表示“胆小、卑怯、卑鄙”的意思，例如： a yellow dog 可鄙的人，卑鄙的人 a yellow livered 胆小鬼英语的blue常用来喻指人的“情绪低落”、“心情沮丧”、“忧愁苦闷”，blue在英语中有时用来指“黄色的”、“下流的”意思，如： blue talk 下流的言论 blue video **（不健康）录像有时blue又有社会地位高、出身名门的意义，如blue blood（贵族血统）。1.blue hairs: Old people, especially women. Example: A: Sorry I was late, but the left lane was filled with nothing but blue hairs going 40.B: How do you get 100 blue hairs to swear at the same time? Yell BINGO! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- blue jeans: Police officers.

Example: The blue q-tip's head was just barely visble above the steering wheel. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- blue-blood: Expression used by Americans to refer to Englishmen. Dates back to at least the middle ages when the aristocracy rarely, if ever, went out of doors.

Example: Most Americans think the actor Christopher Plummer is a blue-blood when, in fact, he's a Canadian. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- blue-dog: A conservative Democrat who tends to vote with the Republican party. Also known as blue-dog Democrats. Example: The blue-dogs are such foreign policy conservatives they can always be counted on to vote with the Republicans on defence issues. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- blue-hair: Used to describe annoying old people. Like those who haggle for ten minutes at the checkout counter because the price rang up five cents more than what the item was advertised for; or those out for a Sunday drive on WEDNESDAY who cruise at 20 mph below the speed limit. Example: That's it . . . I'm going around this blue-hair. red blood cell: Something you can say when you're talking about one subject, then need to interrupt yourself for a second, or when someone says something random that you don't know how to classify. From a high school science class, where the teacher was talking about the heart. This is the aorta. By the way, do you know why turds are brown? Because of dead red blood cells. Now, back to the aorta. As a result, that became a catchphrase. Example: We were talking about shopping when suddenly Joanna red blood celled and started talking about the monkey exhibit at the zoo. OR (Two guys at a football game) SCORE! Hey Neil, red blood cell--do you like sushi? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- red brick: synonym of whatever, used in the stereotypical valley girl fashion. Example: red brick! ..like you know what you're talking about. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- red neck disorder: symptoms: the family tree doesn't branch Example: Hey sis, how's our son doin? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- red rocket: it's what happens when your dog gets excited... Example: Don't look now but Deacon's got a red rocket again. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Sharing: A not so subtle communist plot which encourages people, especially children, to redistribute the wealth and toys. Example: W: Suzy, share your crayons with Tommy.S. No, Ms. Winkersnickle, my mom says that抯 red sharing and you抮e a commie.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Shirt: A character in any movie that is obviously not making it out alive. From the Star Trek original series in which Kirk, Spock, and Liutenant O'Malley would beam down to a planet, with O'Malley wearing a red shirt.Who isn't boldly going anywhere after this planet?That's right.Lt. Red Shirt. Example: The blond at the beginning of _Scream_ was clearly a Red Shirt. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Stick: Local slang for Baton Rouge (Louisiana). Example: I got stuck on I-10 just outside of Red Stick. yellow triangles: Happy little juxtaposed objects found in strange ways or places. Note: these must not be purchased. Example: I found this yellow triangle beneath a bench in front of the mall. Strange finding a cactus plant there. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- yellow-fever: A term used by Asian women to describe European or other Western men who exclusively pursue Asian women. Frequently used as a warning to other Asian women. Example: I don't think he cares about you personally at all; it's just a case of yellow-fever. green-gray: A hipster, artist, or hippie who doesn't appear to shower. Approximates the color of her skin. Example: That bar is full of green-grays. Let's go somewhere else. purple monkey dishwasher: 1) A word originated by The Simpsons when used in a grapevine. 2) A dishwasher yet to be created, but blueprints have been made somewhere. Bananas are its detergent. The monkey gives daily insight 6 days a week, except on it's day off. Example: He wants you to see him at 4 by the purple monkey dishwasher. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- pink squirrel: Very feminine gay man; named for the ulta sweet frou frou drink. Example: In his low cut pants and belly shirt, Chris was a pink squirrel on the prowl. brown: (adj) Inexperienced and utterly incompetent. Worse than green. Example: She added fuser oil to the toner and then the copier caught on fire. She's as brown as any new hire we've ever had. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brown: Just plain good. Example: I saw Ween last night. They played a pretty brown show. white guy shuffle: Dance performed by rhythmless white males across the Americas. The shuffle has no set moves and has all the grace of the blue-footed booby's mating ritual. Example: I hope Uncle Harold doesn't do the white guy shuffle at my wedding -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- white out: code for a white person leaving Example: I leave the room and state white out, later -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- white pine: Very annoying.

1、Black 黑色
在英语中经常有“不好的”、“坏的”、“邪恶的”意味。
例如：
black money：黑钱（指来源不正当而且没有向政府报税的钱）
black market：黑市交易或黑市（意为暗中进行政府禁止买卖的商品或外汇的交易，或指进行违法的投机市场）；由此派生出black market price：黑市价格
2、Brown 棕色
英语动词短语to be browned off不满意，生气的意思。比如：
He was browned off at his boss because he didn't get a rise.他因没有加薪而对老板生气。
I left him in a brown study thinking over the question.这里的in a brown study意为“沉思冥想”。这句话的意思是：我让他思量一番，好好考虑一下这个问题。
英语中有Brown August之说，这是因为八月在草木树叶皆变成棕色而得名，当然这是在英国发生的现象，由于所处地理位置的不同，中国的八月正是绿意正浓的季节。
3、Blue 蓝色
在英语中通常表示不快乐、忧郁的情绪。如：
in a blue mood：情绪低沉
feel blue：感觉不高兴
还常用来表示社会地位高、有权势或出身贵族或王族。如：
blue blood：名门望族
He is a real blue blood.（他是真正的贵族。）
经济词汇中blue表示许多不同意思。如：
blue book：蓝皮书
blue-sky market：露天市场
4、Gray 灰色
gray hairs或gray heads特指老年人，源于人老之后，须发变成灰白之故。
因为gray是在黑色和白色之间。常常有“中立”的意思。比如：
Whenever they made mischief，he tried to stand in the gray.每当他们搬弄是非时，他总是恪守中立。
5、Pink 粉色
粉色很多时候都跟女性相关，在英语中in the pink多表示身体状况良好。
the pink of politeness：十分彬彬有礼
in the pink：振作起来
6、White 白色
英语中的white有时表达的含义，与汉语中的“白色”没有什么关系，
如：
white war：没有硝烟的战争，常指“经济竞争”。
white goods：指的是体积大、单价高的家用电器用具，这类物体常刷成白色，故名。
在英语中white常使人联想起清白。
如：
a white lie：善意的谎言
white soul：纯洁的心灵
汉语中有些与“白”字搭配的词组，实际上与英语white所表示的颜色也没有什么联系，而是表达另外的含义。
如：
白开水：plain boiled water
白菜：Chinese cabbage
