Surface Forms

rose-tinged positive

Morphology

rose-tinged = rose + tinge (transparent) = rose + tinge + ed

The adjective is formed from the compound 'rose' + 'tinge' with the regular adjectival past-participial suffix '-ed', yielding a clear meaning of having a slight rose colour.

Etymology

Rose-tinged comes from rose, the flower and its pink color, and tinge, which means a small touch of color, so rose-tinged means having a little 'rose' or pink 'tint'.
