Etymology

The aura/simile colour of hùso (sand): hùso + -nýj. It is the cold other-class equivalent of xină — the same yellow at the opposite emotional temperature: the dry, washed-out, lifeless pale of sand rather than the radiant gold of the sun. Built from a genuinely cold object so the suffix obeys Source Agreement. See 16_Adjectives_Constitution vs Simile.
