A Romulan never lies he mearly "misrepresents the truth" to those who are not of high enough intellect to know any different (which, invariably, is anyone of another race). ;)

It isn't our fault if they aren't adept enough at language use to discern the true meaning of what is said.   ;D

It occurs to me that no one will pay attention to her ears because of the former observation.

I guess that is how they get away with it so often.  Crafty Romulans.

If the craft in question is plastic surgery, then yes.  One jog around the block and she can lie about anything.  Except headaches, I'm betting.

Wonder if that holds true for male Romulans as well?

If so perhaps I'll call up Drall and see what he's doing this weekend...... ;D

I've found it impossible to catch a Romulan in a lie...

I've managed to catch numerous Romulan "fabrications of a truth", and equally numerous Romulan "interpretations" of the truth, but never a flat-out Romulan lie...

Then again, the Romulan statement "Romulans do not lie" could either be a lie, or yet another misleading fact, clearly illustrating that they never lie, they just make up their own truth as they go along... :D

It is finally clear.  Romulans are Jedi.

Or perhaps it means that someone foolish enough to be caught in a lie is no Romulan.   ;)

Or perhaps the Rolumans are very adept in lying to themselves in the efforts to deny the obviousness of their deceptions to others.

Then again, to a Kzin, if it isn't feline it really doen't matter anyhow, truthful or dishonest a Romulan taste the same.
