    Some euphemisms are used in order to make a blunt or unpleasant truth seem less harsh.

    Examples of euphemisms that fall into this category include:

    · Passed away instead of died

    · Correctional facility instead of jail

    · Departed instead of died

    · Differently-abled instead of handicapped or disabled

    · Fell off the back of a truck instead of stolen

    · Ethnic cleansing instead of genocide

    · Turn a trick instead of engage in prostitution

    · Negative patient outcome instead of dead

    · Relocation center instead of prison camp

    · Collateral damage instead of accidental deaths

    · Letting someone go instead of firing someone

    · Put to sleep instead of euthanize

    · Pregnancy termination instead of abortion

    · On the streets instead of homeless
