Lie

Lie = tell a lie (NOT say or speak): ‘I always know when he’s telling lies.’

Lie (lying, lied, lied) = tell something that is not true with an intention to deceive: ‘I wonder why he lied about his age?’

Lie (lying, lay, lain) down = be in or get into a horizontal position: ‘I lie down on the bed and fall asleep.’
