         DefinitionShort: to communicate what is false, with the evident purpose of misleading

         Glosses: ['to lie', 'to tell falsehoods']

         Comments: The Greek term ψεύδομαι and the English equivalent ‘to lie’ involve more than simply telling what is not true, for this could occur without an intent to deceive or mislead. ψεύδομαι, therefore, involves not only the communication of a falsehood but also the intent to deceive.
