In your opinion, is neon yellow the same color as chartreuse?

Help settle this debate we have at work.
They look the same to me. But I also think neon green and neon yellow look the same. |

| No. Chartreuse has some green in it. It's an odd color! |

No. Chartreuse is greenish-yellow. It's bright, but more muted than "neon" colors.
Neon yellow and neon green are quite different. Have you been tested for color blindness, OP? |

| Of course not. Chartreuse is a mix of yellow and green. |

| No. Neon yellow is a really bright artificial yellow. Chartreuse is green and the name is derived from the liqueur of the same name. |

| I don't think so, but DH can't tell them apart. |

| I always thought chartreuse was green. On the yellow side, and very bright, but still definitely green. |

| As others have said, chartreuse has green in it. Strange that you can't see that, OP. Do you have problems with other colors? |

| No. Very different. Not even close. |

| Chartreuse is like neon lime green combined with neon lemon yellow. |

| Yes, both chartreuse. Don't believe everything you read. |
