pink
🌸 Katakana loanword from English pink: pi-n-ku, the same word with extra vowels added for Japanese sounds
English pink began as the name of the Dianthus flower, from pinks, meaning petals with zigzag-cut edges. Japanese borrowed the color word and writes it in katakana, the script for foreign words.
