Answer:
D. Euphemism.
Explanation:
A euphemism is the use of words in such a way that it 'conceals' or expresses an embarrassing, harsh, cruel, or offensive event. This means that certain words are used to make or express things in a more presentable manner to substitute an offensive or embarrassing situation.
