Euphemism

Euphemism is an indirect expression that is used for is one is a word is considered harsh or inappropriate. 'For example, instead of saying that someone died, you may say that they "passed away."' Another example is instead of saying someone is crippled, you say someone is handicapped. When using euphemism you do not have to use metaphors that you hear on a daily basis, you can find a way to interpret something in your own way.
