To Catch A Liar
Problem
In talking to three children you ask A if they always tell lies. Although A fully understands you she answers in a language that only B understands.
B says that A just denied being a liar.
C says that although she doesn't know what A said, she is a liar and cannot be trusted.
Given that each of the children will always lie or always tell the truth, how many liars are there?
