2. Các câu hỏi thường gặp về Colour
What’s your favourite colour?
My color preferences vary for different purposes. For example, when choosing clothes, I tend to choose black, because black suits my skin tone and body shape. For home decor, I prefer white because it creates a bright and spacious feeling in the room.
Are there any colours you dislike (Why?)
I'm not a brown person. To me, all shades of brown look boring and gloomy. In terms of fashion, it's really hard to wear brown, unless you're extremely beautiful and your figure and skin tone go well with all colors.
Are colours important to you?
For me personally, color is really important. Colors not only help make our lives more alive, but they can also express emotions. For example, I usually wear bright clothes like red or pink when my mood is up, but I will choose black if I'm feeling down.
Were colours important to you when you were a child?
They are definitely more important to me now. When I was little, I used to judge objects by their color, like pink objects are for girls while blue objects are for boys. Growing up, I realized that things are a lot more complicated and color doesn't matter much.
Are there any colours that have a special meaning in your country?
In my country, almost all colors are associated with something. For example, red symbolizes joyful events, like a victory or a wedding. On the contrary, black is considered the color of death, which explains why Vietnamese people often wear black when going to funerals.
What colour would you choose to paint the walls of your room?
I'm a fan of simplicity, so white is my favorite color when choosing wall paint. Science has proven that white can make a room look brighter and more spacious. Plus, looking at this color will make us more pleasant and relaxed.
Do you think different types of people like different colours?
In my opinion, a person's favorite color does not necessarily reflect his or her personality. In fact, it depends on each person's taste, so we shouldn't make any judgments just by one person's color choice.
