Definition:
(noun) - A tint is a color to which white has been added to make it lighter. Take pink, for instance. Pink is a color, but it's also a tint of red.
Sometimes tints are referred to as "pastels". While this is, technically, inaccurate (pastels are a type of crayon), it's such a common phrase that it's worth noting here.
Pronunciation: tint
Examples: "Where does the violet tint end and the orange tint begin? Distinctly we see the difference of the colors, but where exactly does the one first blending enter into the other. So with sanity and insanity." - Herman Melville
