An archaic synonym for liar. Now useful through obsolescence. If you suspect someone of lying but want to avoid making an outright accusation of their deceit, simply tell them with a smile "My, you're quite the pseudologist today."
Chances are, they'll just thank you and be on their way.

Other uses include:

"You pseudologising son of a bitch."

"That's a bare-faced pseudologism."

"Cease this pseudology through clenched molars."

Pseu*dol"o*gist (?), n. [Gr. .]

One who utters falsehoods; a liar.
