A kind of Asatyāmṛṣā (Vyavahāra) Bhāṣā (speech which is neither truth nor a lie-speech for pragmatic purposes);

that speech, which is not pertinent regarding a definite purport; the speech which does not provide any specific instructions as to what should be done, when asked to choose from multiple options, e.g. do that which you like.
