• exaggerate:
      1. 1. augeo, xi, ctum, 2: in e.ing numbers (of Valerius), in augendo numero, Liv. 38, 23: some have e.d it beyond belief, superjecere quidam augendo fidem, Liv. 10, 30 (in Cic. augere usu. signifies to heighten and set off by language) [esp. with amplificare], rather than to falsify: cf. de Or. 1, 21, 94).
      2. 2. expr. by mājor [in majus] and a verb: e.ing the revolt of the allies, defectionem sociorum in majus extollentes, Liv. 28, 31: in the Senate everything was e.d, apud Senatum omnia in majus celebrata sunt, Tac. A. 13, 8: to be e.d by distance (of reports), ex longinquo in majus audiri, Tac. A. 4, 23. Simly, majora vero, (Tac. H. 2, 70), are e.d statements, as distinguished from what is altogether true or false. Phr.: to e. facts, excedere actae rei modum, egredi veritatem, Plin. Ep. 7, 33, fin.; leges historiae negligere ... plus quam concedit veritas dicere, cf. Cic. Fam. 5, 12, 1. (N.B.--Not exaggero, which is to heighten, exalt: cf. Cic. de Or. 3, 27, 105.)

• EXAGGERATE
plus dicere, quam patitur veritas (Auct., Herenn., 4, 53, 67): veritatem or fidem veritatis non servare: fidem superjacere augendo (Liv., 10, 30). To exaggerate anything, verbis augere rem, or augere only; in majus extollere rem; supra ferre rem, quam fieri possit (Cic.); rei actae modum excedere (Plin., Ep., 7, 33, extr.); in falsum augere aliquid (Tac., all = to magnify at the expense of truth); in majus celebrare aliquid (Sen., Jug., 73, 5. Liv.); multiplicare verbis (represent many times greater than it is; e.g., copias); rem verbis exasperare (make it worse than it is); aliquid extollere laudando verbis, etc. (Cic.), with nimis or supra modum; amplificare (general term); tollere aliquid altius dicendo (Cic., as one of the uses of amplificandi, De Or., 3, 26, 104): plus facto dicere (Quint., 8, 6, 68). Rumour exaggerates everything, fama omnia in majus extollit: the report was greatly exaggerated, inflatius multo, quam res erat gesta, fama percrebuerat. History ought to exaggerate nothing, non debet historia veritatem egredi (Plin., Ep., 7, 33, 10): to exaggerate one’s own merits, se supra modum extollere (Quint., 11, 1, 16). ☞ Not exaggerare, though Cic. has oratio nimis alta et exaggerata, an exaggerated style, opposed to humilis, abjecta.
