Buzzed Pall Kiwi

Imitative-onomatopoeic origin — past-participle of buzz, evoking the sound of bee-hum. As a color modifier, buzzed implies a saturated-and-vibrating-and-active quality, the bright color of insect-pollinator and neon-lamp low-amplitude-buzz visual-vibration. Sits at the bright-and-active end of the grid, parallel to jazzed and wired in usage.

Latin pallium, cloak-or-funeral-cover. As a color modifier, pall implies a cloaked-and-shrouded-and-funereal quality, the visual register of Roman-Catholic-and-Anglican-pall hand-cloaked-and-shrouded-and-funereal Roman-Catholic-and-Anglican-and-Orthodox-funeral funeral-pall-and-coffin-shroud-and-altar-cloth surfaces under Roman-Catholic-and-Anglican funeral-pall-and-coffin-shroud cathedral-incense light. Sits at the modifier-and-mood end of the grid, parallel to gloom and shade in usage.

Actinidia deliciosa — originally the Chinese gooseberry before New Zealand growers rebranded it for export in the 1950s. The color refers to the cross-section of a ripe green-fleshed kiwifruit: a saturated, slightly yellow-shifted green with the optical brightness of small black seeds suspended in translucent flesh. Brighter than apple, sharper than pear, with the instantly recognizable graphic quality of the cut fruit.
