The term "white lie" refers to a harmless or trivial lie told to avoid hurting someone's feelings or to maintain social harmony. The "white" signifies innocence or purity, suggesting that the lie is not malicious and is intended for benevolent reasons. This contrasts with more serious lies that can have negative consequences. The phrase has been in use since at least the 18th century, reflecting a cultural acceptance of small deceptions for the sake of kindness.
