Having two distinct colors or color patterns; bicolored or two-toned in appearance.
From Latin 'ambi-' (meaning 'both' or 'around') plus 'color' (from Latin 'color') plus '-ate' (adjectival suffix), literally meaning 'having two colors around.'
Scientific terms like 'ambicolorate' show how Latin prefixes like 'ambi-' (both) combine with common words—it's less common than 'bicolor,' but 'ambi-' suggests the colors are interwoven or surrounding rather than simply divided.
