Euphemisms That Native Speakers Use All the Time

Рет қаралды 153,164

Күн бұрын

ABOUT THE LESSON 📚
Euphemisms are great. And let me tell you why. If you don't want to say something because it's too direct, rude, or even embarrassing, you should use a euphemism instead. They're more polite, pleasant, and even fun to say. Not to mention, native speakers use them all the time. So if you don't want to be jerk, then it's usually better to use a euphemism to get your point across.
Here's a list of the euphemisms...
1) to be let go (from a job)
2) to be between jobs
3) have to go number one
4) have to go number two
5) to do some business
6) powder one's nose
7) big-boned
8) love handles
9) make love
10) to lose one's lunch
11) not the sharpest tool in the shed
12) pass away
13) kick the bucket

Powder my nose can also mean they want to touch up their lipstick and make-up after they eat. Many people have been taught it is rude to do that at the table.

This was a f a n t a s t i c lesson, Wes... absolutely made my day!🌹 I was laughing out so loud, that my husband got curious, what I was doing (happens not too often). I love, love, love the English language for its euphemisms, they make conversation so much easier! Btw. your "make love" statement is really captivating... 😉 P.S. Please more of this kind. 🙏 P.P.S. I have to powder my nose now. 😊

As far as I remember "to have to see a man about a horse/a dog" means that you simply wants/have to leave the room or smrth like this. You could be bored or you r not intrested in it. And you just want to go away from a party/concert/smb's speech. Not necessarily "toilet". Correct me if I'm wrong.

@NickRoman 4 жыл бұрын

@@jon_patterson , that's not really a euphemism. It's the opposite because once you figure it out, it evokes ... imagery. I think it's a way of pretending to use a euphemism in order to intentionally be crude for amusement.

Good afternoon sir , before you kick the bucket I want to say you are the sharpest tool in the shed in terms of presentation . an other way to say I want to go to the toilet is (( I'm going to answer the call of nature .)). the way you convey the info is so attractive. From Algeria thank you a bunch.

"Not the sharpest tool" could also be "Not the brightest candle on the (christmas) tree".

Wikipedia" " A euphemism may itself devolve into a taboo word, through the linguistic process known as semantic change (specifically pejoration) described by W. V. O. Quine,[16] and more recently dubbed the "euphemism treadmill" by Harvard professor Steven Pinker.[17] For instance, toilet is an 18th-century euphemism, replacing the older euphemism house-of-office, which in turn replaced the even older euphemisms privy-house and bog-house.[18] In the 20th century, where the words lavatory or toilet were deemed inappropriate (e.g. in the United States), they were sometimes replaced with bathroom or water closet, which in turn became restroom, W.C., or washroom.
