 How to construct Lagrangian?
Lagrangian is completely defined for any given number of fields and the internal
symmetry.
• Symmetry group

• Fields and how they transform under given symmetry group.

Matter particles in the standard model generation wise:

Quarks: Each flavor of quarks comes in three colors.

Electroweak symmetry does not mix colors,
so color detail can be ignored in EW theory.

Primes fields called mass eigen fields have well defined masses and unprimed fields are called
flavor fields have well defined flavors.
