I've fiddled with the sentence translation(s). |

I don't think we need this. Not common, not
more than the sum of its parts as far as I can
tell, and only in 2 sources where eiwa entries
are indistinguishable from waei entries. |

"lend/give colour to" means "make something seem true or probable", so I think 真実味 is being used with its standard meaning here.
However, I do wonder if the Japanese in that Tanaka sentence is a mistranslation. My interpretation of the English sentence is that the photo has the effect of making the story "come alive", as opposed to making it more credible/believable (which is what I feel is implied by 真実味が出る). I'm not certain, though. |

I noticed this "add color" in the Tanaka sentences (there are two like this) when checking the indexing of 真実味. It doesn't really match well with the stated meaning of 真実味. I suspect it's a stock statement. |
