Best Answer

The words 'blue' and 'red' express different concepts, but in the sense of a color or pigment, they are not opposites.

We routinely pair color terms such as 'black' and 'white' in the context of being opposite, or different, but while the concepts are indeed different, they aren't opposite, any more than are other commonly-paired words such as 'cat' and 'dog'.

To be opposites, words need to express opposing concepts. So, 'pale', or 'fair', can be the opposite of 'dark', while 'black' and 'white', like 'blonde' and 'brunette', or 'blue' and 'red', are diiferent, rather than opposing, pairs.

Color wheel charts illustrate the relationship between colors and their complements; see link below for more information on color wheels.
