soft palette
Gentle color selection
Soft palette is a common misspelling of soft palate, the fleshy rear portion of the roof of the mouth.
The confusion arises because palette (an artist's mixing board or a range of colors) and palate (the roof of the mouth, or one's sense of taste) sound identical.
The doctor examined her soft palate for signs of infection.
