Olive (color)

From TheBestLinks.com

#808000

Olive is a dulled, darker yellowish-green color typically seen on green olives. It can be formed by adding a little black to yellow dye or paint. As a color word in the English language, it is unexpectedly old, appearing in late Middle English

Shades of olive, such as olive drab, are frequently used for camouflage, or by the military in general.

Sometimes persons are said to be "olive-skinned", to denote shades of medium brown with small hints of yellow and green.

A similar green is caca d'oie. ("goose-shit").
