WHAT DOES COLOURISATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Film colorization

Film colorization or film colourisation is any process that adds color to black-and-white, sepia, or other monochrome moving-picture images.

Examples date from the early 20th century, but colorization has become common with the advent of digital image processing.
