define euphemism and explain how it is related to connotative meaning. Give an example of a common euphemism.
jeka94
The term euphemism refers to polite, indirect expressions which replace words and phrases considered harsh and impolite or which suggest something unpleasant.

Euphemism is an idiomatic expression which loses its literal meanings and refers to something else in order to hide its unpleasantness. For example, “kick the bucket” is a euphemism that describes the death of a person. In addition, many organizations use the term “downsizing” for the distressing act of “firing” its employees.

Which of the following best describes the Frankenstein family? Select one: a. They were wealthy and aloof, setting themselves ab
slava [35]

Answer:

B). They were wealthy but generous, helping those less fortunate.

Explanation:

The 'Frankenstein' family is best described as the Bourgeoisie European family that has remained quite significant in European history. The famous character 'Victor Frankenstein' of the science fiction titled 'Frankenstein' is also historically rooted around this context.

As per the question, the 'Frankenstein family' was wealthy and possessed great fortune but despite belonging to the elite bourgeoisie class they were quite generous and helped those whom they found 'less fortunate' for a century. However, the family remained 'infamous' and used as 'synonymous' to 'monster' as their scientific experiment failed and went amiss(as in the novel Frankenstein). Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
