Colors צבעים

Color adjectives agree with the noun: דֶּשֶׁא יָרֹק but חֻלְצָה יְרֻקָּה. Most everyday colors follow the קָטֹל pattern in the masculine.

Masculine קָטֹל often becomes קְטֻלָּה in the feminine: אָדֹם / אֲדֻמָּה, כָּחֹל / כְּחֻלָּה. Gutturals keep a different vowel, as in שָׁחֹר / שְׁחֹרָה.
