‘Desire’ and colour in Germany

Desire: red 34%, orange 13%, …

Green and the left side

In Dutch and German there is the expression ‘sitting on someone’s green side’. That is the same as on someone’s left side, so sitting on the side of his or her heart. Who ‘sits on the green side’, is closer to the heart of the other. Related to this is the expression ‘not being green about something’, which means ‘not being fond of something’.
Heller (1989)
