Etymology

Lined
adjective

Old English līne, line / cord — past-participle of line. As a color modifier, lined implies a clear-and-coordinated-and-supported quality where the hue carries the visual register of carefully-lined-and-supported textile-or-print surface. Sits at the crisp-and-finished end of the grid, parallel to trim and coordinated in usage.

Sriracha
noun

The Thai chili-garlic sauce — named for the coastal town of Si Racha, popularized worldwide by Huy Fong's California-made rooster sauce. The color refers to a fresh-shaken bottle of Sriracha: a saturated, slightly red deep orange with the slight viscosity of vinegar-and-pepper paste. Warmer than tabasco.
