Do I need the "in" between "blinking red"? Hi, do I need the "in" in a sentence like this: The LED will be blinking (in) red. Can I leave it out? Thanks a lot in advance :)

No, you don't need 'in', but 'flashing' would be a better verb': "The LED will be flashing red". 'Flashing' is the word we generally use for the on-off-on-off sequence of a light.

Hello Lyalya! I agree that you could leave "in" out. You could also say it like this: The red LED light will be blinking. I hope that helps!

You can leave it out. Sometimes we use "flashing" instead of "blinking."
