What is a negative consequence of using a eupheism?

English

MAVERICK [17]3 years ago
7 0
Euphemism refers to substituting a harsh word or expression into a mild or indirect one. The negative consequence of using a euphemism is that people may find it as beating around the bush or not telling the truth. On the other hand, it could be interpreted by other people differently.

Which of these excerpts from poems by Emily Dickinson uses irony?
Black_prince [1.1K]
In my opinion, the whole poem is quite ironic - although she is mentioning the exultation and the royal color of death, the poem itself begins with the narrator saying that she cannot breathe - that she doesn't want to die.
So, I would say that the ironic parts are: 
Exultation is the going
Of an inland soul to sea, -
Past the houses, past the headlands,
Into deep eternity!
