Gray is the color of black and white mixed together.
Gray is the color of an elephant, cement, pencil writing, and rain clouds. Gray often looks like someone made black lighter, but not so light that it is white.
Gray color represents neutrality, ambiguity and balance. When it is not clear whether something is legal or illegal, acceptable or not acceptable, it is said it is in a "gray zone".
The first recorded use of gray as a color name in English was in 700. [1]
