see red 大發(fā)脾氣：to become very angry
The maxim（a well-known phrase or saying, especially one that gives a rule for sensible behaviour） was that when a married couple saw red lawyers saw green.（在美國鈔票是綠色的，所以綠色代表錢財或有經(jīng)濟實力的）
俗話說，夫婦吵得面紅耳赤之時，便是律師招財進寶之日。
綠色還可以表示沒有經(jīng)驗，知識淺薄green hand greenhorn(someone who lacks experience of something)

英文當中yellow還有膽小的意思（cowardly）you are yellow.
6) 藍色：英漢當中的藍色都可以指秋高氣爽的天空色，給人以遼遠，寧靜的感覺。藍色在英文當中的引申義比較多，可以指憂愁：in a blue mood, to have the blues, look blue, Holiday blue=winter holiday depression特指圣誕節(jié)來臨，飛雪不停，人們被困在家里，感到孤寂；也指圣誕節(jié)來臨前，因經(jīng)濟拮據(jù)而無力購買年貨和禮物，顯得寒磣而心情郁郁寡歡。
