1st off, "analogy" is the correct spelling for the fourth word in the question.

2ndly, to "prevaricate" is to lie, to give false witness/testimony, to state non-facts as though they were facts. That is the "true" definition of prevaricate. However, most dictionaries bow to the users of that word in saying that it is not *actually* lying, but merely "almost" lying or just leaving some parts out...deception via word play...http://www.answers.com/topic/prevaricate?method=26&initiator=WANS (re: only certain types of sexual acts actually being part of a "sexual relationship" with someone or even actual "sex" with a person.)

In truth "prevaricating" is what the extreme upper class (or lawyers) call the lies told by them and all of the other very extreme upper class (or legal) family and friends they keep, because, of course, only the lower classes (or people who don't have good lawyers) actually tell "lies."
