Smarter terms for negative words.

Nothing is perfect. No human is perfect, no animal is perfect, no machine is perfect and no language is perfect either. The content of the English language is not all nice and sweet.

Some words really bring bad and hurtful meanings. But don't fear. The next time we want to comment about other people truthfully even though it hurts, there's a savior. It's called Euphemistic Language.

What is Euphemistic Language?

Euphemistic Language is a tool to smooth over the rough edges of life, to make the offensive inoffensive, and to help make the unbearable bearable. 

For example, instead of saying : Your fat!!!
You can say : I think you've gain weight.

See, it hurts less...

Euphemism can be seen everywhere these days. In movies, conversations, magazines, comics, television shows, radio shows and many-many more!

People implement this method to make things easier and to make their words seem much more pleasant than what they really are. 

Anyway....

Here are some other examples...
