Unfold into Meaning in English
expression
释义
To gradually become something different or develop into a new form over time.
用法与细微差别
Used in both literal (something physically unfolding and becoming something else) and figurative (ideas, situations, emotions) senses. Common in formal, descriptive, or creative writing—rare in casual conversation. Often followed by what the thing is becoming (e.g., 'unfold into a beautiful scene'). Avoid with concrete, unchanging things.
