What does Wrinkled really mean?

Wrinkled is a word we often use to describe certain textures or appearances that we see around us. Imagine when you leave a piece of paper outside on a rainy day and then go back to find it. What do you notice? Well, the paper is no longer smooth and flat like it used to be. Instead, it has become all crinkly and folded, right? That is what we mean by "wrinkled."

When something is wrinkled, it means that it has developed small, creased lines or ridges on its surface. These lines or ridges can make the object look old, worn out or even unattractive. Do you remember when we were drawing faces in our art class? We learned that when we draw older people, we add these lines on their faces to show that they have lived a long life. Those lines are wrinkles!

But "wrinkled" can also describe something beyond just a physical appearance. Imagine eating a slice of fresh, juicy apple. As you bite into it, you can feel the apple's skin between your teeth. Now, think of a time when you left an apple sitting on your desk for a long time, maybe for a few days. When you come back to it, you might notice that its skin has changed. It has become softer and not as firm as before. When that happens, we say that the apple has become wrinkled. So, "wrinkled" can also describe something that has lost its firmness or has become softer.

To sum it up, "wrinkled" means that something has developed small lines or ridges on its surface, which can make it look old or worn out. It can also describe something that has lost its firmness or has become softer. Just like a piece of paper left out in the rain or an apple that has been sitting for too long, these lines or ridges can give objects a different appearance or texture.
