What are primary colors of light?
This Q&A is about light colours. Paint colours are substances, and different from light colours.If you hold up a glass prism to a beam of sunlight, you'll see the light form a rainbow of colours. This is called the spectrum. It consists of all the colours that make up "white" light.Although you might be able to see seven colours in the spectrum, the white light is really made up of three basic colours. These are called the primary colours because they cannot be made from any other colours. The primary colours of light are red-orange, green, and violet blue. The other colours you see in spectrums or rainbows are made by a mixture of the primary colours.When the naked eye looks at the spectrum, it can see three mixed colours, which are called secondary colours. The secondary colours in light are green-blue, yellow, and magenta-red. You can produce these colours by mixing the primary colours in certain combinations.

Why does a green t-shirt look green when viewed in white light?
White Light is made of all the colours of the spectrum (rainbow). If we look at something, say, green (like grass) it looks green to us because the chlorophyll in the leaves absorbs all the sunlight that lands on it with the exception of green light which it reflects. Therefore this green light that reflects into our eyes makes us see the grass as green. White objects, however, absorb no light and reflect all the colours back to us. As all the colours together make white light, we see the object (in your case, a T shirt) as white.
Is white light monochromatic light?
No exactly the contrary, white light is made up of light of all the colours of the rainbow. And you need to take that literally. The rainbow has these colours because rain acts as a prism and breaks the white light of the sun apart in the colours it is made up of. Because monochromatic means 'of one and the same colour', white light is not monochromatic. LASER light is always monochromatic: all particles have exactly the same wavelength (colour)
