戳穿謊言指南——說謊的人是要吞一千根針的！

小譯說

人們在日常的談話中說謊，是為了贏得更多的喜愛和信任。

雖然男性和女性說謊頻次不相上下，但他們說謊的原因不同。

女性說謊更傾向於讓跟她們說話的對象感覺舒適，

而男性說謊更經常是為了把自己表現得更好。

但是，只要你掌握了以下細節，就能輕鬆識破謊言了！

1. They cover their mouths.

說謊者會捂住自己的嘴巴。

People often cover their mouths when lying. A hand on the mouth or even a touch of the lips shows you that they are lying because this unconscious body language represents a closing off of communication.

人們經常在說謊時捂住自己的嘴巴。把一隻手放在嘴巴上或甚至是觸碰一下嘴唇，這些表現都表明他們在說謊，因為這些無意識的身體語言說明他們拒絕溝通。

2. They repeat themselves and provide too much detail.

他們會不斷重複，羅嗦很多細節。

Liars hate silence, so they often try to fill it up by talking more than they need to. They provide far more information than was needed or asked for. Sometimes the longer you stay quiet the more details liars will throw in to support their story as they try to convince you and themselves of their deception.

撒謊者討厭沉默，因此他們經常試圖說很多的話來填補謊言。他們提供的信息比所需要的或所問及的多得多。有時你沉默的時間越長，說謊者便提供越多的細節來支撐他們的故事，因為他們試圖讓你信服他們的謊言。

3. They prepare for an escape.

他們準備好了逃跑。

In an unconscious attempt to find an escape route, people who are lying often angle their bodies toward the door if they』re sitting, and if they』re standing, they may even move closer to the door. They may also change their posture from relaxed to erect or guarded as their bodies perk up in unconscious preparation for an escape.

說謊的人會下意識地去找逃跑路線，如果他們是坐著的，他們經常會把身體對著門，如果他們是站著的，他們可能會向門移動，離門更近。他們還可能會改變放鬆的姿勢，直立起來，保持警戒，因為他們下意識地準備逃跑。

4. Their words and body language don』t match.

他們的話語和行為不一致。

A clear sign that someone is lying to you is when their words are saying one thing and their body language is saying something entirely different. For example, someone is telling you a sad story about the personal struggles that made them miss work, yet they』re smiling while they』re talking and their hand gestures and body posture are animated and excited.

一個明顯的表現就是，對你說謊的人說的是一回事，但他們的身體語言表現出來的卻完全是另一回事。比如，有人跟你說他們因為個人紛爭而丟掉工作的故事，這本身很遺憾，但他們說的時候卻在笑，而且手勢和身體姿態很活躍、很激動。

5. Their breathing changes.

他們的呼吸會發生變化。

People reflexively start breathing more heavily when they lie as lying causes changes to heart rate and blood flow. Sometimes liars will even have trouble speaking as the mucous membranes in the mouth dry out as part of the body』s response to lying.

人們說謊時會自然地加重呼吸，因為說謊會改變心率和血流。有時說謊者甚至會說話困難，因為作為身體應對說謊的反應，他們的口腔黏膜會變干。

6. They change their typical patterns of eye movement

他們會改變眼運動的典型方式。

They say that the eyes are the 「windows to the soul.」 That』s especially true when someone is lying. But there』s a catch: it』s not where the person is looking that matters, but a change in direction. Some people, for instance, look up and to the right when they』re remembering information, but down when they』re lying. For other people, it』s the opposite. That makes this tactic more suitable to use with people you know well, or at least, interact with on a regular basis.

人們常說，「眼睛是心靈的窗戶」。人們說謊時尤其如此。有個小技巧：重要的不是人們看向哪裡，而是眼睛運動方向的改變。例如，有些人回憶信息時眼睛會往上或向右看，但說謊時眼睛會往下看。對另一些人來說，卻恰恰相反。如果你很熟悉對方或至少做定期交流，這種技巧就更加有效。

7. They get aggressive.

他們會變得咄咄逼人。

Liars will often get aggressive in a conversation for no apparent reason. Sometimes liars will become hostile and point aggressively in your direction. Other times liars will maintain excessive eye contact without blinking, in an abrasive attempt to appear truthful.

說謊的人通常在談話中會無緣由地咄咄逼人。有時候，說謊者會心懷敵意，挑釁地指向你。也有的時候，說謊者會跟你有過多眼神交流，並且不眨眼，以此來表現得很真誠。

看了這些，是不是感覺很受用呢？

不過好在生活中的謊言大多是善意的或無可厚非的。

對於這些情況，裝糊塗卻能活得更加輕鬆，難道不是么？
