{ 1 } - is the color that it would appear to have to normal observers under standard conditions.
{ 2 } - is the color that we perceive the thing to have.
{ 3 } - is a senseless or unknowable idea.
{ 4 } - can mean different things depending on the context.

Austin thinks that what we mean by "real color" depends on the context and on what distinction we want to make. For example, if I speak of the "real color" of Suzy's hair, I might mean the color it would look in normal lighting (and not in the weird bar-room light). Or I might mean the color that it was before it was dyed.
