Prevaricate
<preh-vair-rah-kayte>
fib; distort; con;
to lie by exaggerating the truth.
It's easier to tell the truth. You have to remember your lies when you prevaricate.
Memory trick:
prevaricate reminds of fabricate.
fabricate means to create something.
At work:
The secret to marketing is to prevaricate. The secret to making a customer happy is to deliver more than you promised.
