4 -coloured o colourful?-
Nota d'usoL'aggettivo “colorato” può essere tradotto in inglese con coloured oppure con colourful, a seconda dei contesti. Coloured viene utilizzato per distiguere gli oggetti colorati da quelli bianchi o neutri: I prefer coloured shirts to white ones, preferisco le camicie colorate a quelle bianche. Colourful segnala invece la presenza di tinte vivaci: That shirt is very colourful, quella camicia ha dei colori molto vivi. -
