YSK Manipulative language can serve as a tool for misleading the public, doing so not with falsehoods but rather the strategic use of language, such as replacing a disagreeable term (torture) with another (enhanced interrogation). People judged this as largely truthful and distinct from lies.

YSK操縱性語言可以作爲誤導公衆的工具，這樣做並不是以假亂真，而是有策略地使用語言，比如用另一個詞(強化審訊)代替一個令人不快的詞(酷刑)。人們判斷這基本上是真實的，有別於謊言。
