ii · ETYMOLOGY · 字源

炎本义为火焰向上升腾，从二火会意。炎色（火红色）由火焰之赤色引申，但说文定义动态非色词。

iv · AI PROMPT

Flame Red (#FF3300) as the primary color for a branding; use it as a attributed Chinese color reference, pair it with harmonious supporting colors, and do not treat the name translation as proof of an exact historical HEX value
