A Latin equivalent to the English word 'green' is viridis, which is pronounced as VIH-rih-dihs. This is the word to use, in terms of color, be it grass or pea or sea green. Another equivalent is virens, which is pronounced as VIH-rehns. This is the word to use, in terms of living things, such as the green grasses and the plant parts of edibles and ornamentals. Still another equivalent is crudus, which is pronounced as CROO-duhs. This is the word to use, in terms of edibles that are unripe and therefore too green to be eaten.
