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

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.

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