It can be an untidy line, that appears when you press or crush fabric or paper, or it can be a neat line that you make in sth, for example when you fold it. * crease多指织物或纸上的褶痕而非皮肤上的皱纹。它可以是织物或纸上因为受压而产生的不整齐的皱痕，或是通过折叠等有意做出来的整齐的褶线◆He ironed out the creases in his shirt.他把他衬衫上的皱褶熨平。◆My mother always irons creases into my trousers.我母亲总是把我的裤子熨出裤线。   see also crease ⇨ crumple verb ▸ crease
