         DefinitionShort: pertaining to being the color of the flower hyacinth (see {D:2.41}), probably a shade of blue

         Glosses: blue

         Comments: Since in some languages the flower hyacinth may not be as well known as precious stones such as sapphire and turquoise, it may be possible to render {S:06600901700036} as ‘blue as sapphire’ or ‘blue as turquoise.’ The justification for this is simply that the Greek term ὑακίνθινος had become primarily a designation for color.
