Fabrication refers to the act of constructing or creating something, either physically by assembling parts, or non-physically by inventing a story or piece of information.
It can denote the process of manufacturing a product from raw materials, or the deliberate invention and presentation of false information as if it were true, often with the intent to deceive.
Therefore, fabrication holds dual meanings, encompassing both the creation of tangible objects and the creation of deceptive narratives.
