准确译文：

“红眼”是“嫉妒”的意思。英语的red- eyed没有“嫉妒”的
比喻意义，而green-eyed(with envy/jealousy)才有“嫉妒”的意思。

“红眼”的第一个意思是指“某些动物是天生红眼睛的”。英语
译为red-eyed 或with red eyes。 例如：红眼树蛙会改变皮肤颜色
与其周围环境融合。A red-eyed tree frog will change its skin
color to blend in with its surroundings.

“红眼”的第二个意思是指“人因熬夜、劳累、受伤或生病而产
生的生理病变”。英语译为red- eyed 或with red eyes。 例如：他
因劳累而眼红。He is red-eyed from fatigue.“红眼病”英语为
acute conjunctivitis。例如：红 眼病是最常见的能传染儿童的眼病。
Conjunctivitis is the most common eye infection affecting
children

“红眼”的第三个意思是“发怒”或“发急”。英语译为to see
red, to become desperate, to become furious。 例如：他赌钱输
红眼了。He became desperate due to loss in gambling.
