1. 1帶點粉紅的、略粉的

    Pinkish means a bit pink, not fully pink — a sky that is only slightly pink, a shirt that looks almost white until you hold it next to something truly white. The ending -ish is a soft “sort of”: , , work the same way. It is a gentle, everyday colour word, a little vague on purpose. You use it when you do not want to say the thing is simply pink.

組成pink(粉紅色)+ -ish(有點……的、略帶……的)。
