What is the difference between lying and exaggerating?

If a chicken says that all chickens always lie is he telling the truth?

No, he is lying. If he were saying the truth, then, in theory, as he is a chicken, he would be lying. Then, he cannot tell the truth. So, he is lying. But, if he is lying, then all chickens say the truth, and he cannot be lying. The key lies in the word "all". He is lying that ALL chickens always lie, therefore not necessarily all chickens say the truth. It could be that some chickens always lie. The truth does not have to be the opposite. Therefore, he is lying that chickens always lie, and the truth is that "some chickens always lie".


What is the difference between lying and hidding the truth?

Do you tell the truth?

There is no way to be certain just by asking. Someone who is lying would lie about telling the truth.The "Liar's Paradox" is that no one can rationally answer a question about the truth by saying "I am lying." This is clearly because if you are telling the truth, you say "I am telling the truth" and if you are actually lying (about lying), you would again say "I am telling the truth" (a lie).If you said you were lying, you would have to be telling the truth, but you're not because you are lying. This is similar to the double-negative paradigm ("He's not right...he's just not wrong").

What is the difference between lying and exagerating?

A lie is 100% fabrication, untrue. Exaggerating begins with truth and is modified, to suit the speaker, to make the 'story better' to suit his/her agenda or impress. Then there are half-truths, which a statement contains truth, but critical points are omitted, completely changing the real thing.
