Word for an idiom accepted as true but is actually false.
Is it true that compared to other birds in Canada and America, Geese can be scared easily? Is there a word or phrase describing the condition that a commenter stated as false?
Which word means “In order to understand the meaning of an idiom you must accept a false statement or premise as true”?

Misunderstood terms often come to mind.
To beg a question means to assume the conclusion of

Which idiom can help to explain a true fact
or a factoid (permanently)? The term was coined in 1973 as a neologism by US sen. Norman Mailer to mean a “piece of information that becomes accepted as a fact even though it’s not actually true, or an invented fact believing to be true because it appears in print.” Since its creation in 1973 the term has evolved from its original meaning, in common usage, and has assumed other meanings, especially being used to describe a brief or trivial item of news. So it is a factoid that “factoid” means something or someone totally true.
Is “factoid” meant “a small fact, but its original meaning was false “each time people did it.” Such as the fact that geese are easily scared.
