How do you say red in Chinese?

Red in Chinese

The word 'red' in Chinese is :

紅


New addition:

Above is the most common character for 'red.' It is pronounced 'hóng.' If you want to say 'red' as a noun meaning the color red, you would have to say 'hóng sè' (which sounds like hong suh). The 'sè' means color. If you want to say 'red' as an adjective meaning 'something that is red' as in red ball or red shirt, then you would say 'hóng sè de .......' (which sounds like hong suh duh).

Further addition:

"Hong" is Chinese Mandarin pronounciation; which is quite different from what we pronounce in English. People would mistakenly pronounced it as the "Hong" in "Hong Kong"

It should be pronounced as "Hone" (as in "Tone") in English pronounciation.
