Etymology of REDDEN
The word "redden" can be traced back to Old English, where it was spelled "reodan" or "reodienne". The root of the word is the Proto-Germanic "raudjan" or "raudōną", which meant "to make red". This Proto-Germanic term is derived from the Proto-Indo-European "reudh", meaning "red". Over time, "reodan" evolved into Middle English "reden" and eventually became the modern English "redden".
