英语单词nostrum的用法讲解

nostrum是一个英语单词，意思是“自制药，个人疗法”。它通常作为名词，指一种由药店或其他机构制备的药物。它的原意是“独家特药”，因此也可以指任何只能由一个组织或个人提供的解决方案或解决技术。

例如：

He's trying to market his own nostrum as the miracle cure for all ills.

他试图将自己的独家特药作为治疗所有疾病的奇迹药物。

Some people advocate nostrums to cure a wide range of ailments.

有些人提倡使用自制药来治疗各种各样的疾病。

Nostrum can also be used as an adjective to describe something or someone which is pretending to be a remedy for something, but in reality is not.

例如：

The government's austerity plan is nothing but a political nostrum.

政府的紧缩计划不过是一个政治噱头而已。

He is a master at peddling his nostrum solutions to the public.

他是一个擅长向公众兜售自己的虚伪解决方案的大师。
