German term

mittelhell

German to English Marketing Advertising / Public Relations colours
Hello all,

I'm translating a website, and this is one of many random (context-free) strings. "Mittelhelles blau". I also have "Mittleres blau" and "Helles blau". If I translate "Mittleres blau" as "medium blue" and "helles blau" as "light blue", what do I do with "Mittelhelles blau"?

Unfortunately I have NO IDEA *what* this is being used for. My guess would be website colours.

Thanks very much! ;-)

medium light (blue)

medium light blue is a commonly used term and this is how I would say it, but it's not a 'web design' color. For reference please see colorcode chart and an example for medium light blue used in a product description.

Yes, guess you are right about the collar, but google it and you'll find a few examples re embroidery yarn etc.

Thanks for the suggestion, Stefani! I think, though, that the "medium" in the collar refers to the size rather than the colour...

light blue, then sky blue

OK, I opened up word and then went to the "Font color" button on the top right.

Here were the choices for blue:
Dark blue
Blue
Light blue
Sky blue
Pale blue

So, this would put "helles Blau" as either sky or pale blue and then you have 'light blue' for your one in the center.

A semi-low-tech solution...

:)
