Euphemisms

  Euphemisms are common phenomena which can be seen frequently in every language in the world. Every countries have lots of euphemisms. My country also instead of saying a person died, we say he passed away. Instead of saying go to bathroom, we say go to see my work. Instead of saying to person who lazy, we say carefree. Instead of saying mental hospital, we say white hospital. like that we always try to  polite way of saying something.
