Abstract
The controversial status of goluboi as a basic color term is discussed. Fuz zy logic alone cannot reliably attribute basic status to goluboi. Recent Li nguistic studies support a single basic blue category. Psycho physical data on color-space distances and color naming are currently ambiguous in this regard.
