pale-yellow
Light buttery shade
Pale-yellow describes a light, muted shade of yellow—soft rather than vivid, like weak sunlight or aged paper.
The compound typically modifies nouns: pale-yellow walls, a pale-yellow dress.
Without the hyphen, pale yellow functions as a noun phrase: The room was painted pale yellow.
