azulado

bluish, blue-tinged

adjective ah-soo-LAH-doh Rare

Usage Note

Azulado describes something with a blue tint or that verges on blue — like pale lips from cold, a cloudy sky, or certain minerals. Color adjectives ending in -ado in Spanish indicate an approximation of that hue rather than a pure color (compare rojizo for reddish). The feminine form is azulada.

Examples

"El horizonte tenía un tono azulado al amanecer."

Natural Translation

The horizon had a bluish hue at dawn.
