it's difficult to describe the Japanese meaning of "nuance" for foreign people
because we also saying "ニュアンス" in conversation but dunno what it means actually
nuance and nuisance are both french, yeah
nuance comes from latin nubes for cloud, into french nuance meaning shade or subtlety
nuisance from latin nocere meaning to do harm
The word ニュアンス carries pretty much the same meaning in Japanese as it does in English—a subtle difference in, or shade of meaning, sound, or expression
They’re probably calling pastels “nuance colors” because they add nuances to existing colors
