From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48 [gcide]:
Falsity \Fal"si*ty\, n.;pl. {Falsities}. [L. falsitas: cf. F.
fausset['e], OF. also, falsit['e]. See {False}, a.]
1. The quality of being false; coutrariety or want of
conformity to truth.
[1913 Webster]
Probability does not make any alteration, either in
the truth or falsity of things. --South.
[1913 Webster]
2. That which is false; falsehood; a lie; a false assertion.
[1913 Webster]
Men often swallow falsities for truths. --Sir T.
Brown.
Syn: Falsehood; lie; deceit.
Usage: {Falsity}, {Falsehood}, {Lie}. Falsity denotes the
state or quality of being false. A falsehood is a
false declaration designedly made. A lie is a gross,
unblushing falsehood. The falsity of a person's
assertion may be proved by the evidence of others and
thus the charge of falsehood be fastened upon him.
[1913 Webster]
From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]:
falsity
n 1: the state of being false or untrue; "argument could not
determine its truth or falsity" [syn: {falsity},
{falseness}] [ant: {the true}, {trueness}, {truth},
{verity}]
2: a false statement [syn: {falsehood}, {falsity}, {untruth}]
[ant: {true statement}, {truth}]
