A glimpse of lies from words and topics

People often choose different words and topics in different mentality, so we can see the clues of lying from the words and topics.

(1) Different occupation and cultural background, the choice of vocabulary and topic is not the same

If someone comes up with words like "it", "server" and "memory module" from time to time in their conversation, it can be concluded that they are engaged in IT industry or related professions. Nowadays, when making up lies, swindlers often have to package themselves as "senior cadres", "Secretary of the central leadership", "overseas experts", etc. if their words and topics are always not in line with their roles, it should arouse suspicion. At this time, as long as you grasp one or two key questions and "break the casserole and ask to the end", the other party will feel guilty, either ridicule you for not knowing, or avoid the heavy and take the light and prevaricate. At this time, you can judge that the other party is lying nine times out of ten.

(2) People use different words and topics in different attitudes and emotions

John danard, an American psychologist, once conducted an experiment: by comparing the positive part of a person's vocabulary with the negative part, we can infer his current state of mind and mood. For example, if someone always complains about the "bad" weather, "boring" TV and "heavy" traffic in recent conversations, it can be concluded that the person is not in a good mood recently.

In the same way, if you are always talking about the past or the future, that is, avoiding talking about the present, then the person's current situation may not be very good. When a liar lies, he often complains about the weather, the traffic and the company in order to reduce his inner guilt. It seems that this can alleviate his crime of lying and make others feel that he has to lie. Secondly, he can hide his lies so that they will not be exposed.

(3) A person with different focus will choose different words and topics to express

For example, if a businessman often nags about the hospital, it can be concluded that either he is suffering from a serious disease, or there must be anxiety about the disease in his heart, which has been latent in his heart. If we master this rule when distinguishing lies, we can find out what is on the other side's mind.

(4) Vocabulary and topic are also related to personality and pursuit

Psychologists have found that those who have pursuits are particularly keen on topics related to the things they pursue; on the contrary, they may not be interested. For example, fans, chess fans, said that the ball, talking about chess is often straightforward. But when it comes to other topics, it is likely to be silent. If a person's words are inconsistent with his identity and occupation, he is likely to be a liar.
