Roomy Naqvy: Incorrect. The asker asked for translation of 'red' in French, not what red might mean in English ideologically.

rouge


Explanation:
The color "red" in French is "rouge". Thus, "Does this come in Red?" would be "L'avez-vous en rouge ?" if speaking of a garment for example.

Rouge


Explanation:
The colour 'red' has to be 'rouge'. I knew that first from the novel, Red and the Black [Le Rouge et le Noir] by Henri Beyle Stendhal(1783-1842).

I think you must mark previous answers for the KudoZ points.
