Indent/indentation
Hi,
When you take macarons out of the oven, you need to find out if they are dry before you proceed to the next step.
"You have to brush your finger back and forth to make sure that the macarons won't indent."
"You have to brush your finger back and forth to make sure that you won't leave an even slight indentation in the macarons."
Can I use both 'indent' and 'leave an indentation'.
Top answer
Indent (verb) means: 1) to start the first line of a paragraph a tab stop to the right. 2) To have the margin of a paragraph to be further to the right than the surrounding paragraphs. Don't use the verb indent in the context of baking macarons.
