This means "His words are lie covered with truths to make you believe". Its related to biblical sentences It says someone is liar in a polished way

It means not approximately. Instead you can use tangentially also.

This means his word contains very little amount of truth. or his word is only half the truth/not completely true.

English language is a language in which words have been derived from other languages also so that we can get a broader knowledge of the language and for this reason certain tricky words are used so you can also understand

Yeah. It means that his word has touched the truth a little bit. Think about how a tangent touches a circle(at one point and not entirely). Therefore, his word is not totally true but is true to a very little extent.
