词源

pseudo-science (n.)

此外 pseudoscience,“虚假或误解的科学”,1796年(最早的参考是指炼金术),由 pseudo- 和 science 组成。

The term pseudo-science is hybrid, and therefore objectionable. Pseudognosy would be better etymology, but the unlearned might be apt to association with it the idea of a dog's nose, and thus, instead of taking "the eel of science by the tail," take the cur of science by the snout; so that all things considered we had better adopt the current term pseudo-sciences ["The Pseudo-Sciences," in The St. James's Magazine, January 1842]
术语 pseudo-science 是混合词,因此不太妥当。Pseudognosy 也许是更好的词源,但是过于专业化,缺乏易懂性。如果使用它,可能会让外行人产生与 dog's nose 相关的想法,使人们抓住的不是“科学鳗鱼”的尾巴,而是“科学顽童”的鼻子。所以,从各方面考虑,我们最好采用当前的术语 pseudo-sciences(“伪科学”,收录于 The St. James's Magazine,1842年1月)
最早记录年份: 1796
