Chacra

The color violet, sitting between blue and red, softer than purple. In Spain and the Southern Cone "violeta" is the standard word for this shade, while in Mexico "morado" is more common for the same color. A small vocabulary difference that sometimes creates confusion when Spanish speakers from different regions talk about colors.
