Mental reservation is a term used primarily in ethics and moral philosophy, particularly within the context of communication and honesty. It refers to a situation where a person expresses something verbally while having a different understanding or intention in their mind that is not conveyed in their words. Essentially, it is a form of withholding or reserving certain thoughts or truths while making statements that can be technically true, but are misleading or deceptive due to an omission of important context.
