Hello,
I saw this example in Longman dictionary:
Light filtered into my kitchen through the soft, green shade of the honey locust tree.
What is the meaning of shade here? Does it mean shadow? How can light filter from shadow? Or does it mean shade of color like we say shades of blue?
Would the sentence work without shade?
Light filtered into my kitchen through the soft, green of the honey locust tree.
