true and false
Two possible answers
True and false are the two possible values in binary logic—a statement is either one or the other.
In everyday use, true means accurate or faithful to fact, while false means incorrect or deceptive.
A true-or-false test presents statements to be judged as one or the other: Mark each statement true or false.
The phrase also describes situations with only two outcomes or positions.
- truthAccordance with reality
- lieDeliberate falsehood
- lie detectorDevice measuring physiological deception signs
- truth serumDrug inducing candor
