Tips
usage
Two senses anchored in two set phrases: 大惊失色 (dàjīng-shīsè, 'great shock turns the face pale') for personal terror, and 黯然失色 (àn'rán-shīsè, 'gloomily lose colour') for being outshone by something else.
memory
失 (lose) + 色 (colour). 'Losing colour' from a face = pallor; 'losing colour' from a thing = looking dim next to a brighter rival.
