“公眾不接受的真相”英文怎么說?

Substition refers to a fact that many people do not believe.

“公眾不接受的真相”是指許多人不相信的事實(shí)。

Substition was coined by the British novelist Terry Pratchett, who died on March 12, 2015 from Alzheimer's disease. It's the opposite of superstition. That is, a superstition is something that isn't real, but many people believe, so a substition is something that is real, but many people do not believe.

這個詞是由英國小說家泰瑞·普萊契創(chuàng)造的(普萊契于2015年3月12日死于阿茲海默癥)。該詞是superstition(迷信)的反義詞。也就是說，superstition是某種不真實(shí)的事物，但許多人相信，而substition則是某種真實(shí)存在的事物，但許多人卻反而不信。

Substition和substitution(代替，替換)在拼寫上極為相似，在學(xué)習(xí)和背誦時一定要注意兩者的差別。

For Example：

Climate change is a substition. For most of human history, bacteria and viruses weren't believed to be real even though people died of them. Bacteria were a substition. Just because you don't believe in infectious diseases doesn't make them any less real.

許多人不相信氣候發(fā)生了變化。在人類歷史中，人們也不相信存在細(xì)菌和病毒，就算他們會因細(xì)菌和病毒而死。很多人不相信細(xì)菌是真實(shí)存在的事物，但并不會因?yàn)槟悴幌嘈庞袀魅静?，它就真的不存在了?/p>
