Colors in Chinese
By Dmytro Syrykh, the parent who makes Kidster
Spoken by a native Chinese voice, the same recording a child hears in the Kidster app.
All of these are free in Kidster.
Good to know
Mandarin color words usually end in 色 (sè, “color”): 红色 (hóngsè) is red, 蓝色 (lánsè) is blue. Before a noun the 色 can be dropped, as in 红花 (hóng huā), a red flower. The recordings are in Mandarin.
