greys

Between black, white

Greys is the plural of grey, the British spelling of gray.

As a noun, greys are things of that color—particularly horses: a team of greys pulled the carriage.

In popular culture, greys refers to the iconic alien beings depicted with grey skin and large dark eyes: believers claim greys have visited Earth for decades.
