The English word for the blue of the sky is "azure". Or sometimes "cerulean".
- ph0rque 8y agoThanks! But these words are certainly not part of the everyday vocabulary in English, like my Russian word example.
- adriand 8y agoNative English speaker here (Canada) - I believe I can honestly say that I have never heard anyone refer to the colour of the sky as either of those things. Certainly never "cerulean", and I have strong doubts about "azure". In fact, because Microsoft Azure comes up in conversation relatively frequently, I have noticed that people don't even know how to pronounce it. I often hear people say "ah-zoor".
