A half-truth is a statement that includes some element of truth but omits important information, which can lead to a misleading or deceptive impression. Half-truths can be intentional or unintentional and are often used in arguments, politics, advertising, or everyday conversations to manipulate perceptions or opinions. Because they contain some truth, they can be particularly persuasive, but they can also create confusion or misunderstanding by not providing the complete context.
