Answer: in between or beside maybe?
While an <u>oxymoron</u> is a figure of speech where two opposing words in meanings are used together intentionally for creating a special effect, an <u>euphemism</u> is concerned with the use of a word or phrase that replaces another with a less offensive or vulgar meaning.
<u>Examples of oxymorons are</u>:
- 2. Ted thought the game was <u>bittersweet</u> because his team won, but he was injured. <em>(The game was pleasant because of the result, but it included a bit of suffering since Ted ended up injured)</em>
- 4. After his ordeal, Richard looked like a member of the <u>living dead</u>. <em>(Richard seemed to be alive but with a dead soul)</em>
<u>Examples of euphenisms are</u>:
- 1.Nick was <u>stretching the truth</u> when he said that he was working on his second novel. <em>(Nick was saying something that wasn't exactly true...)</em>
- 3.The horse was <u>put to sleep</u> after injuring its leg at the derby. <em>(The horse was sacrified...)</em>
The world watched as the images were shared. Moments like this are rare not just because telescopes this powerful are few and far between but also because collective experiences are, too, at least ones so overwhelmingly positive. That is its own feat, and it’s what space exploration does: It reminds us of our inherent connection. Viewing images like these can also provide a profound sense of insignificance — they offer a sense of proportion and understanding of just how small we are on the grand scale.
