The quirks about colors are especially interesting to me.
Like English is one of the few that makes a distinction between pink and red. In Russian, they draw a similar a distinction between what we would consider light blue and dark blue. I don’t remember which it is, but I recall that some languages merge orange and brown. I think yellow/green is another one.
