=== Non-dimensional terms === Other terms sometimes used to describe color are related to physical phenomenon that do not describe a single color, but describe the dynamic nature of an object's color. These include: * [[Gloss (optics)|Glossy]]: whether the surface reflects ''diffusely'' or ''specularly'' (sharply) * [[Metallic color|Metallic]]: distinguishing 'gold' and 'silver' from shades of 'yellow' and 'gray', respectively * [[Iridescence|Iridescent]]: dependence of color on viewing angle, innate to [[structural coloration]] * [[opacity (optics)|Opacity]]: opaque (solid) vs. translucent (transparent or see-through)
