我正在读丹尼尔-理薄尔曼的《人体的故事》(2013)。学了一个词, palliative。
在此与大家分享。原文
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the original
meaning of the word “palliative” (first used in the fifteenth
century) was to refer to care that “relieves the symptoms of a
disease or condition without dealing with the underlying
cause.”
大意就是治标不治本。 |
