give me an example of euphemism?

Answer 1

Kick the bucket, bought the farm, and bit the dust are all euphamisms for death.

Answer 2

A euphemism is something less harsh to cover up the actual word.

Such as: "Aunt Jane passed away", instead of "Aunt Jane died".

This web site is exceptional for euphemisms


For example, when Conservatives want to cut social welfare, they speak of fiscal restraint and responsible government, and when Leftists want to raise taxes they speak of social justice.
The drawback of euphemism is that no matter what you call the nasty thing, the thing (e.g. death) remains nasty and, eventually, the euphemism becomes as offensive as the word it replaced - and a new one must be found. Linguists call this phenomenon deterioration (timid linguists refer to it - euphemistically – as negative amelioration).
