☆ allude to　ほのめかす
============================
Ooh, I like today’s word! It’s a formal word, so you might not hear it in everyday life, but you will definitely hear it in movies or books that are about human relationships. Other words that mean something similar are:
Refer
hint
imply
suggest
But if you want to impress your friends, try using “allude”! It is usually followed by “to”. Here are some example sentences:
What are you alluding to?
His letter alluded to something, but I’m not sure what yet.
She sometimes alluded to her difficult childhood.
His father alluded to a feeling that he felt he was to blame for the divorce.
It’s a bit tricky, but can you use “allude” in a sentence?
Bye,
