Step-by-step explanation:
A euphemism is an appropriate expression used in the place of a phrase or words that may be found inappropriate or offensive. Euphemisms are commonly used in daily language and literature to replace language that some may find displeasing.
Euphemistic language is commonly used in literature, especially older works, as a way to convey a message without risking the chance of it being barred to censorship for crude language.
Examples:
“Passed away” instead of “died”
“Let go” instead of “fired”
“Make love” instead of “sex”
“Put down” instead of “euthanized”
