Current Anthropology Volume 33, Number 2 complete issue. First edition. "basic color terms" are the simplest forms of broadest meaning that most speakers of a language…will routinely apply to colors in any context. They number from 2 to i i in languages throughout he world. Yet in language after language speakers choose the same colors as the best examples or foci of basic color terms; the favored colors comprise less than 30% of the total assortment contemplated during interviews. This suggests that foci are constrained by universal visual physiology. Further, the meanings of the basic color terms of a language are predictable from their number, implying that everywhere they evolve in a highly restricted order. It appears that basic color-term evolution also is constrained by neurology. Condition: Light edge wear, corners bumped else very good.
