"초록색 물이 맛없습니다."

Translation: The green water tastes bad.

[RoseSands]

Yeah green water usually doesn't taste all that good. Unless there is some water im unaware of

[FabienP1]

Maybe you are unaware of green tea

[Andy513708]

Yeah, unless I know there's a good reason why it's green, I ain't drinking it.

Why is Duolingo teaching two words for green? Is there a reason that 녹색 (綠色 "green") is not good enough and we need to be so specific as to say 초록색 (草綠色 "grass-green")?

[wintertriangles]

Koreans use both of them in real life. It's not bad to know both. Same with 하얀색/흰색, 검은색/까만색, etc.

[liliana426552]

Know if there is any general rule or nouns usually associated with a particular word for the colour? Thanks in advance.

[Lloyd76445]

Um well....that makes sense. Probably shouldn't drink green water

[Tyrael1701]

Green water probably means algae >

[InfiresMan_1]

Dont drink that water.

[VarshaChan3]

I heard from somewhere that 녹색 is more formal whereas 초록색 is more commonly used in daily conversations

Where are you from?

Is 맛없습니다 from 맛보다 or 맛없는?

[mhin1]

The latter.

맛없다 = 맛 + 없다 = "taste" + "to lack" = ill-tasting, unsavory

[Claire815917]

That's tea
