No colour in Esperanto carries as much baggage as this one. The movement's flag is green, its emblem is , and Esperantists have called their own language since the early congresses, green standing for hope. So is never quite neutral in Esperanto prose the way it is in English. Grammatically it behaves like any adjective, agreeing in number and case: is wrong, right. o is greenery, i to turn green.
