【False】 ,  【wrong】  mean not in conformity with what is true or right.

【False】 in all of its senses is colored by its original implication of deceit; the implication of deceiving or of being deceived is strong when the term implies a contrariety between what is said, thought, or concluded and the facts or reality.

An intent to deceive or a deceptive appearance is implied when the term connotes an opposition to what is real or genuine or authentic.

The term is applied in vernacular names of plants to a kind related to, resembling, or having properties similar to another kind that commonly bears the unqualified vernacular.

Even when the word stresses faithlessness (see FAITHLESS ) there is usually a hint of a deceptive appearance of faithfulness or loyalty or of self-deception in one′s failure to be true. Only in the sense of incorrect or erroneous is this implication obscured, though there is often a suggestion of being deceived into believing that the thing so described is true or right.

【Wrong】 , on the other hand, is colored in all of its senses by its original implication of wryness or crookedness; in general it implies a turning from the standard of what is true, right (especially morally right), or correct to its reverse. In comparison with  【false】 ,  【wrong】  is simple and forthright in its meaning; thus, a  【wrong】  conception is one that is the reverse of the truth, but a  【false】  conception is not only  【wrong】  but the result of one′s being deceived or of one′s intent to deceive; a  【wrong】  answer to a question is merely an erroneous answer, but a  【false】  answer to a question is one that is both erroneous and lying;  【wrong】  principles of conduct are the reverse of ethically right principles, but  【false】 principles of conduct are not only 【wrong】 but are bound to lead astray those who accept them.
