a wavelength your brain swears it sees, though color lives nowhere but inside your skull
means The pure attribute of a color that lets you name it — red, blue, green — distinct from how light or dark or vivid it is.
from From Old English 'hīw' or 'hēow,' meaning form, appearance, or color, and a cousin of Old Norse 'hý' (the down on a bird) and Gothic 'hiwi' (form). It once meant the whole look of a thing — shape and complexion together — before English narrowed it down to color alone. (Note: the 'hue' in 'hue and cry' is unrelated — that one comes from Old French 'hu,' an outcry.)
