BELIED Meaning and
Definition
-
"Belied" is a past tense verb that reflects the action of presenting a false or misleading appearance that contradicts or masks the true nature or reality of someone or something. When something is "belied," it means that there is a discrepancy between its outward appearance or the impression it gives and the actual truth or facts about it.
This term is often used to describe a situation where a person's actions do not accurately reflect their true intentions, feelings, or character. For example, if someone claims to be kind-hearted and compassionate but consistently behaves in a selfish and insensitive manner, their actions belie their professed qualities. In this case, their behavior contradicts their words.
Similarly, "belied" can be employed to describe circumstances where an object, event, or situation falsely represents itself by creating an inaccurate impression. For instance, an idyllic vacation destination may seem picturesque and serene in promotional advertisements, but if it turns out to be crowded and noisy in reality, the advertisements would be said to have belied the actual experience.
In summary, "belied" refers to a situation in which false or misleading appearances or impressions are given that contradict the true nature, intentions, qualities, or reality of someone or something.
