用法
- 'In color', as opposed to black-and-white - 彩色照片 (cǎisè zhàopiàn) a color photo; 彩色电视 color TV.
- Attributive: it modifies a noun, contrasting with 黑白 (hēibái, black-and-white). Not used for a single hue - for 'what color' use 颜色 (yánsè).
- For richly multicolored/gorgeous, 彩色 differs from 彩虹-like 五彩 (wǔcǎi) or 花花绿绿; 彩色 just means chromatic rather than monochrome.
例句
