Din pacate n-am prea mult context, fiind o lista de "Verbal symptoms of deception" in care se mai mentioneaza "Exaggeration" si "Qualification of Answers".
Sunt intr-o pana majora de idei si as aprecia orice ajutor.
Multumesc mult

Multzam frumos, Cristiana (Cleopatra?) Am intrebat si niste nativi americani si habar n-aveau cu ce se mananca treaba asta, asa ca... Anyway, am mers pe "minciuna prin transfer", desi, din cauza contextului (or lack thereof), suna extrem de ambiguu si ma intreb daca va intelege cineva despre ce e vorba.

Minciuna prin omisiune


Explanation:
Ma gandesc ca asta ar putea fi explicatia, dar numai daca este "lying by deferral" si nu "referral". Poate e vreun typo pe undeva?

Atunci poate sa fie buna varianta Cristianei: minciuna prin transfer - adica prin transferul raspunderii etc. asupra unei terte parti. Ce mai tura vura, a da vina pe altcineva.

minciuna prin referinta


Explanation:
eu cred ca, ma rog, in functie de context, poate fi vorba si de un referral la altceva, o alta instanta, altcineva. adica a minti "citînd pe cineva", sau referindu-se la spusele, pozitia altcuiva.... qui sait?
varianta suna cam stupid, dar s-ar putea sa existe in vreun tratat din domeniu..
ce faci acolo mai aceea? te-ai apucat sa-mi calci domeniul ?
