Yellowish or having a yellow color (technical/scientific usage).
From Latin 'flavus' meaning 'yellow' or 'golden'. This word is a direct borrowing from Latin and is used primarily in scientific nomenclature and academic contexts.
Scientists use Latin adjectives like 'flavous' in naming species and describing characteristics—so you might see 'flavous' in taxonomy, but you'd never see a cook describe soup that way!
