中式英语之鉴:红扑扑的脸
217. 小姑娘红扑扑的脸上挂着微笑。
[误] 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 所指的红润脸颊展示着健康和美丽，而 red 是用来形容由害羞或窘迫引起的脸红。如：He
went red when I asked about his girlfriend.
下面给出有关 red 的翻译：(For the time being, I cannot locate the post I posted on Rainlane months ago. I'll
settle this later on.)
