Question:
Is covering up, for example, when you see a person doing a wrong, not exposing his matter, meaning remaining silent about it?

Answer:
If it is in a private, secret connection, he is covered up and advised.
As for if it is among people, he has exposed himself.
As for if you entered his house or a private place and saw him, you cover up for him and advise him.
