You can redden something on purpose, though in everyday talk people more often say “make it red” or “turn red.” “Redden” feels a little more like writing or storytelling than like a word you drop in the kitchen. Though actually, for faces, “go red” and “blush” are what most people say; “redden” sits next to those, a bit more careful, and it covers the sky and the skin as well as a shy face.
You你 can redden something on purpose可以刻意把某樣東西redden, though不過 in everyday talk在日常對話裡 people人們 more often say更常說 “make it red”「make it red」 or或 “turn red”「turn red」。“Redden”「Redden」 feels a little more like寫起來感覺更像 writing or storytelling寫作或說故事的用詞 than like而不像 a word you drop in the kitchen在廚房裡隨口說的字。Though actually不過其實, for faces講到臉的時候, “go red” and “blush”「go red」和「blush」 are what most people say才是大部分人會說的; “redden”「redden」 sits next to those就緊挨在旁邊, a bit more careful用字更講究一點, and而且 it它 covers the sky and the skin as well as a shy face涵蓋了天空、皮膚,還有害羞的臉。
