I believe the answer is:

fable

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'it's not true' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'it comes to a moral conclusion' is the second definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for fable that I've seen before include "Moral tale" , "Story, often with moral" , "Aesop story" , "It's not true" , "One of Aesop's tales" .)
