反義詞

文法句型

[colour/many]-hued + noun

用法筆記

Almost always part of a compound: a colour word, 'many', or 'multi' attaches in front (rose-hued, many-hued). It rarely stands alone after 'be' the way ordinary colour adjectives do.

常見錯誤

❌The scarf was hued.
✅The scarf was many-hued.
💡'hued' needs a colour word or 'many'/'multi' joined in front; it does not work on its own.
❌a hued sunset
✅a richly hued sunset
💡without a describing word in front, readers cannot tell which colour or how many.
