Maybe that's why I hate that color so much, because my brain can't decide if it's green or blue. 😆

Right there with you. Turquoise is clearly blue.

Am I the only one thinking this question is a bit weird? Turquoise isn’t green or blue—it’s 🥁 turquoise! It’s like asking if purple is red or blue; it’s its own color. Fun fact: ancient people didn’t even recognize blue as a separate color—blue and green were just ‘green.’

Interesting website! The green-blue spectrum has different boundaries in other languages, too. In Kazakh, people often use the same word for both colors. In Russian, I would call the middle of this spectrum "голубой", which is a separate word for light blue.
