The   fruit   is   `apel'sin'   (á»Ñ½∞ß¿¡),   the  color  is
`oranzhevyj'  («αᡪÑóδ⌐).    Dmitry   Likhanov   used   the
adjective `apel'sinovyj' (á»Ñ½∞ß¿¡«óδ⌐).  I give the Russian
spellings in KOI8-R.

ML> i can understand that... translating things is a special

ML> difference between an orange (the fruit) and  an  orange
ML> color...

Especially  especially  when the orignal expresses the color
with the word for the fruit :-)
