Phillipa - today it's sunny & the sky is very very pale blue.
But sometimes it's 'bright sky blue'.

Wouldn't it be weird if people saw colours differently? Maybe we do....maybe when I see, for ex, 'red' it's different from what you see when you see red.

Yeah, but Phillipa, what about this - & I don't think like this because it'd 'drive me crazy'....
but, OK - people know that 'red' means stop, but what if someone sees red as crimson & another sees it as apple red & another sees it as something altogether different!!!
Can't get my mind around that.
Hugs, Kathryn

There's the position on the light that adds to the meaning, too. "Stop" is the top light or sometimes the far left if it's a horizontal light. But our brains are accustomed to that as well as the color. Similarly, the shape and letters on a stop sign as well as the color together make up the icon.
Still, it sure would be interesting to see the world as someone else sees it for a bit. Just to see, ya know? :)
