I´m going through a ´yellow´ moment, but I don´t know why... Maybe it has something to do with my birthday dress, maybe not... Or perhaps it has to do with the fact that yellow is the color of the sun and only God knows how much I love the sun! It´s also the color of gold!!! :oD
The folklore says that yellow undies (women´s underwear) bring you wealth and good luck if you wear it on New Year´s Eve. Or is it on New Year´s Day??? In doubt, how about wearing yellow on both days so that you make sure you get some extra luck. ;o)
Apparently, the tradition applies to women only (sorry, guys...) and bras don´t count, according to a lingerie website... I´m not 100% sure about that, so all men can have a say here...
Whatever the reason, today´s post is about words that are related to yellow and I do hope you learn something new. ;-)
- yolk: the middle part of an egg;
- to yellow (verb): to make or become yellow, often because it´s old. Eg: The photos yellowed with age.
- yellow alert: a situation of danger, but less serious than ´red alert´;
- yellow card: held up by a referee to indicate that the player has broken the rules.
