"A furphy" nghĩa là gì?


"A furphy" -> nghĩa là câu chuyện sai sự thật, dắt mũi dư luận.

Ví dụ
This is a furphy. Hydroelectric power works well with smelters (lò nấu kim loại) too. Aluminium production using renewable energy may be justified (hợp lý) in Australia, if we can manage its other environmental impacts.

Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley has labelled the hitout statistic (số liệu) a “furphy” after the Magpies slipped to a one-point AFL loss to Brisbane despite Brodie Grundy’s monster performance in the ruck.

Brodie’s not just a hitouts ruckman, he follows up, he’s a midfielder and that’s what he provides to us and that’s what he gives us and he played particularly well. The hitout differential is largely irrelevant (không liên quan), it’s actually what we do at ground level with that. He still had hitouts to advantage but the hitout stat’s a furphy.

Queensland Editor Peter Gleeson says Annastacia Palaszczuk’s suggestion that she will rely (dựa vào) on the Doherty Institute’s modelling has always been a furphy. “This government does not want to open the borders (biên giới), it is as simple as that,” Mr Gleeson told Sky News Australia.
