英文释义

名词 n.
  1. Something made in imitation; an effigy or substitute.
    — The important point I want to emphasize here is that, regardless of a Government agency's conception of what a consumer expects of a food item, by and large the consumer detests the use of chemicals in foods as substitutes for nutritious, wholesome natural ingredients which improve flavor and quality. The consumer has little to gain in purchasing a product containing questionable ersatzes if his life is to be endangered or he will suffer ill effects.
形容词 adj.
  1. An inauthentic or inadequate substitute or imitation.
    — Back then, we could only get ersatz coffee.
