What is a problem with using a euphemism

English
1 answer:
nlexa [21]3 years ago
6 0

Someone who is not familiar with the euphemism you are using may not look beyond the literal meaning, and thus would get the wrong idea about what is going on and be confused. Sometimes, euphemisms are purposefully used to confuse the reader, usually to mask the more negative aspects of a situation; for example, when Publicis Groupe's Starcom MediaVest Group fired eighty people and referred to it as a 'talent calibration'.

What is a summarize ?????
Korolek [52]
When you summarize, you take the main points of a story and write in in a few sentences. You want to make sure you hit all the key parts of the story and don't focus on the small details. If you were telling a friend about a movie you saw, you would by describe the major events, but not the little moments. That would be summarizing. You can do this with any book,movie,story etc. :)
