Deception and Lying

Deception and lying is something that comes along with rhetoric, but the negative connotations are not always intended through rhetoric. However when there is a negative thing it is called deception and lying. Deception is deliberately making someone believe false information. To lie is the exact same thing, telling someone something that is not true. Many people lie and deceive every day but it is not always the intention to deceive to people. Lying can also be something that can help people or it can hurt people like you can help a kid by telling them that the Easter bunny is real but you can hurt someone by telling them you didn’t steal from them when you really did.
 
Deception and lying do connect to other rhetoric devices. like for instance it does correspond with euphemism because euphemism is a way of sugarcoating the truth which in my opinion is a deceptive thing to do. Dysphemisms in contrast is trying to make something sound worse than what it may be to produce a more disapproving effect which is also deceptive because you are trying to in a sense make someone feel worse than they should about something, deceiving them. Sarcasm is used to insult you sometimes without you knowing it kind of playing on a persons gullibleness being dishonest. Hyperbole is basically blowing something out of proportion when telling someone something and that is changing the facts to make them more dramatic for your story which is lying for the stories benefit.
