注释- The termsredd and redd up came to the American Midlands from the many Scottish immigrants who settled there. Meaning "to clear an area or to make it tidy,” redd is still used in Scotland and Northern Ireland;in the United States it is especially common in Pennsylvania as the phrasal verbredd up. The term, which goes back to Old Norserydhja, can be traced from the 15th century to the present, particularly in dialects of Scotland and the North of England.词语redd 和 redd up 通过许多苏格兰移民传到了他们的定居地-北美中部地区。 意为“清理出一块区域或使干净”, redd 仍用于苏格兰和北爱尔兰;在美国动词词组redd up 尤其在宾夕法尼亚州常见。 这个词可以追溯到北欧语rydhja, 其发展从15世纪一直延续到现在, 尤其在苏格兰和英格兰北部的方言中使用
