This paint is yellow
The sky is blue, not a cloud in sight.
As white as snow
Look at the green grass in that field

Also what is the diference between "gareche" and "toploca" and how do you say piping hot water?

её - hers;
его - his;
неё - the same as её, with additional "n", like "a person" and "an interpreter" - for instance, без неё = without her.
