It helps to cite where you find such a reference, especially
since here you are claiming that "You act in the manner of a
liar," means, "He is obviously lying."
The one example I have is in TKD on page 172:
"You lie." {bInep}
It's not much help here, but, hey. It's canon. Intransitive, so
far. Not used as a verb of speech yet.
