color violeta o violeto?
Nuestro profesor ha dicho que un color derivado de una flor, como violeta, permanece violeata en el masculino. Es verdad?

This can be very confusing in situations where you omit the noun and use it as an adjective. By example:
¿Cuál es la casa de Pedro? Es la violeta.
¿Cuál de los dos es tu auto? Es el violeta.
In both cases "violeta" acts as an adjective, and the article matches the gender of the omitted noun in the answer.
Hi siggard, WR and your book are wrong, if the bible lists the word....
violeto.
(De violeta, por el color morado del fruto).
m. peladillo (? árbol).
m. Fruto de este árbol.
Interestingly, it appears that the word violeto is something completely different!
Well, who'd o' thunk it!
Maybe this will help :
violet 1. violeta (f) (plant); violeta (m) (color) adjetivo también:
* violet(-colored) -> (de color) violeta
I think that it retains the masculine because the color, violet, is being used as a noun and the color 'violet' is masculine as seen above.
Creo que es Violeta.
