Etimologija (Anglų k.)

Inherited from Old Galician-Portuguese mentira, from mentir (“to lie”), from Latin mentīrī, denominal verb from mēns (“mind”), in which the meaning "to lie" stems from a semantic shift "to be inventive, have second thoughts" > "to lie, conjure up", from Proto-Indo-European *méntis (“thought”), from *men- (“to think”) + *-tis.
