Which 橙子, 橙色 came first, the 水果 或者 the color?

The fruit. :/

i donno but i kno they found the carrot last....and then went "fuck, what do we call these? do we go 由 shape now?!" n then carrots were almost named Long-Pointies

The color.

Both because I imagined the 水果 which is of course the colour orange.

Well, I think the 水果 was found first...but the name for the colour 'orange' was obviously discovered and created first, before the 水果 was named orange..

I think that makes sense..slightly...maybe..

BOTH.

See, once a red 苹果 and a yellow 柠檬 loved each other very much. They had sex and along came the orange.
