Sometimes we find it hard to see the things that are closer to home, and presume that these phenomena are do do with other peoples and cultures.
But consider in English we currently do this blue and light blue. Where say Spanish calls them different colours - blue and celeste, and they are linguistically seen as different named colours.
Interestingly we don't do this with red, there's no red and light red, but red and pink.
