1.116

If he commits such falsehood and speaks to another person, and the other person understands, it is a pārājika; if he does not understand, it is a sthūlātyaya. If he sends hand gestures, or sends an emissary, or writes, or makes sign indications, and they are understood, the offense is likewise so. If he speaks to an animal that cannot transform its shape, it incurs a duṣkṛta. For the lower four assemblies, it is as stated before. Cases of non-offense: a person of overweening pride; or having attained [it] through karmic retribution; or not saying “I have attained”; or speaking in jest, speaking hurriedly, speaking in secret, or intending to say this but mistakenly saying that.
