What does that mean? How does "not even wrong" differ from true or false?

There are sentences that are not propositions, for example "Go get me a beer", or "Will it rain?" or "Greenness perambulates."

Right and those sentences are not hypothesis either.

That’s a statement unprovable in math and reality. You're likely thinking of Gödel.
