How to Use 'rosa'
'Rosa' comes from the flower and has no masculine form — never 'roso': 'un vestido rosa'. Traditionally it is invariable in the plural ('pantalones rosa'), though the agreed plural 'rosas' is common in speech; 'de color rosa' avoids the issue entirely.
Regional note: 'Rosado/rosada' is the more common everyday form in much of Latin America (Chile, Colombia, the Caribbean); 'rosa' dominates in Spain and Mexico.
