Pseudo description |
---|
The prefix pseudo- (from Greek , pseudes, "lying, false") is used to mark something that superficially appears to be (or behaves like) one thing, but is something else. Subject to context, pseudo may connote coincidence, imitation, intentional deception, or a combination thereof.* In scholarship and studies, pseudo-scholarship refers to material that is presented as, but is not, the product of rigorous and objective study or research. Examples: * Pseudoarchaeology * Pseudohistory * Pseudolinguistics * Pseudoscientific language comparison * Folk linguistics * Pseudomathematics * Pseudophilosophy * Pseudoscience * In biology and botany, the prefix 'pseudo' is used to indicate a species with a coincidental visual similarity to another genus. For example, Iris pseudacorus is known as 'pseudacorus' for having leaves similar to those of Acorus calamus. In biology, coincidental similarity is not the same as mimicry. * In literary studies, the prefix 'pseudo-' is used to indicate false attribution of authorship. |
