As a nonnative spaker I wrestled ( and still do ) with red. I made the 
following schemae. Starting from white, yellow or blue, I added 
more and more red Do you think there is any truth In this 
scheme?Or would you place some colours on another place or add 
even more ( I dont hope so).

red  crimson vermilion cranberry  garnet  
scarlet =ruby=cinnabar=magenta?  current-red
