    sparkle or glitter?用 sparkle 还是 glitter？There is very little difference in meaning between these two words. Glitter can sometimes suggest a lack of depth, but this is more frequent in the figurative use of glitter as a noun: the superficial glitter of show business. Sparkle is also often used to talk about light reflected off a surface, but things that produce light can also sparkle: Stars sparkled in the sky.

      • Stars twinkled in the sky.星星在天空中闪烁。
    • glint to give small bright flashes of reflected light:
