The CMYK color space is a color space that works well for printing technology, but there's no reason that has to have anything to do with language. Most languages do not have a native word for "magenta" or "cyan". In fact, "cyan" is an unfamiliar word to most English speakers. Also, if you made a language where all the colors were described in CMYK, how would you describe colors that are unprintable in CMYK such as lime green?
