ismy.blue is a website whose sole purpose is to help you measure where you draw the line between green and blue. Naturally my first thought was, this is perfect for Turquoise People 
Just for reference, this was my score. I suspect my perception of blue vs. green was more than a little coloured (hah) by my love of turquoise – the gem, that is.
Cool! I saw it the other day but didn’t do it. So now I just did it, and here’s mine…
I admit, on a couple shades I could have gone either way.
For sure. I keenly felt the lack of a turquoise/aqua category.
I wonder how much some of us may correlate turquoise hues as green because we tend to view any piece of turquoise that’s not an unambiguous Persian blue as leaning into green territory.
The subject of colour perception really interests me generally. There are a lot of cultures and languages that don’t clearly distinguish between green and blue. The traditional Japanese word ao/aoi (青) is used for both blue and some green hues. Even when another word for green (midori, 緑) was introduced, you still get green being described as aoi, so that a standard green traffic light is considered “blue”.
If you do an image search in Japanese for iromuji aoi or “blue” solid-colour kimono, you get mostly “blue” kimono but also some teal, turquoise, and what most of us would call green (scroll through to see examples). Whereas iromuji midori gets you a result set of green kimono… mostly. But (speaking as a westerner who has bought kimono from Japan for tea ceremony) it can get tricky because it all depends on how the individual in question categorizes this or that piece. It’s not easy to filter specifically for green kimono alone.
That’s fascinating. People do perceive color differently sometimes. My sister can’t tell navy from black, and my husband and I often differ on shades (like blue vs purple, i.e. is periwinkle blue or purple).
I was 174, average for most of the population.
Fun color test.
interesting!
when they say my turquoise is green, they actually mean “what this website calls turquoise.”
Okay, so far I’m the only one whose turquoise is blue
