Euphemistic language actually is using words or phrase to hide the true meaning of an unpleasant to a receiver/a person. This type of euphemism is used in a public relations and politics , where it is sometimes called doublespeak. Here some sample of euphemistic language that i found during my research.- Evening lady - prostitute
- Garbage collector - sanitary workers
- You've got a prime figure - fat
- The 'reconstruction' of New Orleans - the destruction of the city's cultural and historic heritage.
