i wanted to make a funny observation about the contrast between “nuance” and “shades of gray” if you speak swedish but then i discovered that there was some, ah, nuance i was missing to the swedish word for “nuance”. this is what i love about the world
however it turns out that this meaning of the word is possibly a result of modern mistranslations in computer software, or at least we can say that it's a fairly new sense of the word. ”nyans” can actually mean, well, any fine difference between colours on different axes.
we live in a world abundant in nuances, a very colourful world. i love this world.
