But things are more complicated when you consider that the primary colours in your printer are magenta, yellow and cyan, or that the screen you're watching this on uses red, green and blue!

但是当你知道打印机的三原是品红、黄和青，或者你正在观看的屏幕使用的是红、绿和蓝时，情况会！

Our next task was to mix them into something more complex: green, purple and orange.

接着我们学习把三原混合构成其他：绿、紫和橘。

These are different colour models, where RGB is “additive” meaning the mixing of different lights of colour create new colours-while the other two are “subtractive” models and absorb different wavelengths of light.

些是不同的模型，其中红绿蓝三原是“相加模型”，它意味着不同光的混合创造，而另外两个是“相减模型”并且吸收不同波长的光。

I was fascinated by how two primary colors could be mixed together to create something nuanced and completely unique.

我有被深深吸引到，因为三原中的两个竟可以混合在一起然后形成有细微差但又完全独特的彩。

This color that we've all been taught since kindergarten is primary -- red, yellow, blue -- in fact is not primary, is not irreducible, is not objective but quite subjective.

红、黄、蓝是我们从幼儿园开始就学到的三原——其实三原并不是基础且不能再分的，也不是客观的，而是相当主观的。

Growing up, you likely learned about the primary colours red, yellow and blue-and their respective complementary colours.

在成长过程中，你可能会了解三原——红、黄和蓝以及它们各自的互补。

No two colors could be combined to create them.

三原不能由其他任意两个混合而成。

We started by learning about the primary colors: red, yellow and blue.

最开始我们学的是三原：红、黄、蓝。

Our teacher taught us how they were the pure colors of the rainbow.

老师告诉我们说三原是彩虹所包含的纯。

Envisics's new system uses three miniaturised lasers, producing the primary colours of red, blue and green, controlled by a customised processing chip and lots of software to produce moving holograms.

Envisics 的系统使用三个微型激光器，产生红、蓝、绿三原，由定制的处理芯片和大量软件控制， 以制作移动全息图。
