Definition: The substitution of a mild, indirect, or vague expression for one thought to be offensive, harsh, or blunt.
Example: Saying “He passed away" is a euphemism because it is a gentler way of saying "he died."
In the picture, I drew a dog that "went to live on a farm", a phrase you often hear in movies or TV shows when a parent tries to find a delicate way to tell their children their dog has died.
