Answer:

The correct answer is misrepresentation.

Step-by-step explanation:

To misrepresent means to offer a version of facts that does not correspond to the truth. Let us illustrate this idea with a simple example: I tell an acquaintance that I am happy in my new house but I have to make some reforms. If the acquaintance tells another person that I am going to reform my house because I am very unhappy, he is misrepresenting my words, that is, he is not faithfully expressing the idea that I wanted to communicate.

When it is said that there is a misrepresentation of some words, it is usually indicated that the person who interprets something does so in an interested way and with bad intention. Thus, it is understood that misrepresentation is not a simple unimportant error but is associated with bad faith.
