中式英語之鑑:紅撲撲的臉

padding-bottom: 150.23%;">

217. 小姑娘紅撲撲的臉上掛着微笑。

[誤] The little girl's red cheeks are brightened by a smile.

[正] The little girl's rosy cheeks are brightened by a smile.

注：rosy cheeks 所指的紅潤臉頰展示着健康和美麗，而 red 是用來形容由害羞或窘迫引起的臉紅。如：He
went red when I asked about his girlfriend.
下面給出有關 red 的翻譯：(For the time being, I cannot locate the post I posted on Rainlane months ago. I'll
settle this later on.)
