Collective nouns are an informal part of language. Any noun that suits the context can function as a collective noun. However, the word 'colorful' is an adjective; collective nouns are not used with adjectives. Collective nouns are used to group nouns. An appropriate collective noun is a 'rainbow of colors'.

The noun 'rainbow' is a standard collective noun for:

  • a rainbow of reasons
  • a rainbow of butterflies
