In Darija, "color" is lun (لون), pronounced /LUN/.

Darija (الدارجة) is Moroccan Arabic — the everyday spoken language of 40 million Moroccans.

Learning how to say “color” the way Moroccans actually say it — with the right pronunciation, register, and cultural context — is the difference between sounding like a textbook and sounding like you belong.
