Answer:

Euphemisms are substitutes for crude, hurtful, or otherwise offensive expressions. Euphemisms manipulate the meaning of a word or phrase to make them appear more pleasant. Because the purpose of euphemism is to disguise semantics and avoid saying what is meant, it has been called "the language of evasion, hypocrisy, prudery, and deceit,"

Explanation

as an example: For nearly all actors it begins at the end of the audition with four words from the auditor, "Thanks for coming in." . . . "Thanks for coming in" is a polite entertainment euphemism for "You suck. Was that the best you could do?"

A utopia is a perfect or ideal society, a dystopia is a society that is in some way understable or even frightening.Dystoplas in
Semmy [17]
What could be similar between thses two in science fiction is that it could be a society that was meant to be ideal and perfect but be frightning in the way in which they are achieving said perfection. for example you could have a perfect society, but behind the walls technology could be brainwashing people to get them to cooperate and follow all the rules of society. At this point its a perfect society with the most horrific practices. In order to achieve a perfect society they are taking away free will and the ideal laws placed for human rights. Hope this help.
