Notes on Meaning
- The reference from the Vietnamese-French dictionary suggests "clair de lune" (moonlight) for the term itself and "bleu clair" (light blue) for the color "màu nguyệt bạch." This indicates the color is not a pure white but a pale white often perceived with a cool, bluish undertone, reminiscent of moonlight.
