Hi great

'Superiority' sounds a bit strange here. Do you mean 'importance'? In that case, my suggestion would be:

Colors are not important. The things that are important in life are love, peace and fraternity.

Do you agree or does this change the meaning of the original text?

Hi all,

"importance" doesn't give the exact meaning of "üstünlük". How about "priority"?

'the most important'? 'what's most important'?
I'm not sure how to construct a natural-sounding sentence with 'priority' in this case (suggestions welcome!)

Hi guys,

What about:
"Colors are not of utmost importance"?

Also, there's a typo in "in the world"

I just noticed, there's an extra "in".

I think it should be "in the world we live" not "in the world we live in"

I agree with that "importance" sounds much softer than the one in the original.
Could we say "ascendent/ above" ?

Here comes my offer - hope it's not too bad :

Colors have no precedence/priority. The things that are superior in the world we live are love, peace and fraternity.

OK, thanks all! I have edited following handyy's suggestion. As for the 'extra' 'in', this is required I reckon. We are talking about things that are important in the world in which we live; 'which' can and is often left out, but 'in' has to stay. We don't live this world, we live in this world
