That is easy. Brown, pink, gray, black, for starters. There are a whole lot more, but that
involves naming pretty much all of the other colors. So yeah, some other common ones
include Mahogany, Ruby, Pistachio, Quartz, Rust, Navy, and Gold. Really not that hard
when you think about it. In fact, E is the most common letter in the English language and
compared to the rest of English, the letter e is actually rare in colors. Still very common, but
it is rare compared to other parts of English. I win the bet.

The answer is simply a YES or a NO.

It doesn't say “Name a color without the letter”E” ?”

It says “Can you name a colour without letter “E” ?”

If you can, just say yes.

And here are just a few

Before I explain why you could spend a lifetime listing colors without the letter ‘e’, let me
explain what constitutes a color.

What is a color?

Colors constitute the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum . Anything outside that
spectrum is beyond our optical experience and thus are not considered to be true colors.
For example, what is the color of x-ray? or microwave? We can see near-ultraviolet and
near-infrared, however, as they are at either end of the visible spectrum.

There are actually a lot more colors without “e” than many people think.

Sure, out of all 7 main colors in the rainbow, (red, orange; yellow, green, blue, indigo,
purple) only indigo is without an “e”. But there are a multitude of crazy colors with vowels
other than the one that isn’t at the beginning of my name.

Black, indigo, maroon, apricot, aqua, brown, burgundy, charcoal, crimson, fuchsia,
gold, gray, Ivory, lilac, mahogany, mint, navy, pink, plum, salmon, sand, tan, topaz,
