German

Etymology

From French lilas.

Pronunciation

IPA^(key): /ˈliːla/ (standard)
IPA^(key): /ˈlɪla/ (regional; overall rather rare)
Audio: (file)
Hyphenation: li‧la

Adjective

lila (indeclinable) or (informal)
lila (strong nominative masculine singular lilaner or (rare) lilaer, not comparable)

lilac, purple, violet (color/colour)
Synonyms: fliederfarben; (at least in common usage) violett

Usage notes

The adjective is usually treated as invariable in the formal standard language, thus neither declined forms nor comparation forms are used.
In less formal style and in the vernacular, lila has normal inflected forms. An -n- is then infixed before (vocalic) endings. Additionally, it has also inflected forms without an infix. Compare the same in rosa.
The adjective is usually considered not comparable.
