Definition:
The term “deceive” means to cause someone to believe something that is not true. The act of deceiving someone is called “deceit.”
Translation Suggestions:
“Deceiver” could be translated as “liar” or “one who misleads” or “someone who deceives.”
MaryEllen noticed that the bullets discussing the nouns 'deception' and 'deceit' and the adjectives 'deceptive' and 'deceitful' are confusing. There are differences cited in the definition bullet item, but they are not really clarified, and the bullet items in the translation suggestions treat them as synonymous.
I've looked at these words in the ULB, and I don't see any strong sytematic distinction in their uses. Maybe we could simplify it to this.

Thanks. I changed it and emailed MaryEllen about it.
