Colours are one of the few corners of the vocabulary where - politely stops. is its own root rather than a, and the same goes for every other colour on the wheel, because opposites in colour are a matter of convention rather than logic. What the root does give you is o for blackness and i for to blacken. Remember that adjectives agree in both number and case, so a plural object needs , with both endings stacked in that order.
