When asked about a shidduch, I may only respond to questions, never volunteer information. True or false?

If something is public knowledge, I am allowed to speak about it freely. True or false?

Is it true that it's not lashon hara if I don't mention any names. True or false?

If I have no intent to hurt anyone, it's not lashon hara. True or false?

Contrary to what many would think, the answers to the above questions are all false!

The laws of forbidden speech are complex and difficult to master. Yet they are some of the most pertinent and relevant halachos that one must know for daily life. In The Laws of Lashon Hara and Rechilus, these crucial halachosare organized in a systematic and comprehensive fashion, with the goal of presenting a clear sefer of practical halachah for today's reader. Culled from Sefer Chafetz Chaim, this work also includes hundreds of rulings from contemporary poskim addressing many modern-day she'eilos that did not exist, or were not relevant, in the Chafetz Chaim's times. Extensive footnotes and a detailed index make this sefer the perfect resource for layman and scholar alike.
