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'.

The passage clearly shows that narrator was not aware of her family's situation. She suddenly came to know the truth of their poverty. This feeling of realization that they are poor has made her emotionally week. She is not at all mentally stable to make correct decision or think positively. She has mixed feelings of helplessness, anger and hopelessness.

Why is English such a difficult subject?
Gala2k [10]
This, on the other hand, is a big, interesting book. Native English<span>-speakers intuitively know what order to put words in, but this is hard to teach to those </span>learning<span> the language. The difference between the right and wrong order is so subtle that it's hard to explain beyond simply saying that it “just sounds right” I find it simple but we all have our own opinions..</span>
