"The father of one's father" is the circumlocution of "grandfather".
Circumlocution is the use of many words where fewer would do. For example, instead of saying "I'm not sure," one might use circumlocution and say "I'm somewhat uncertain of the answer."
One way to use circumlocution in a sentence is by describing an object or concept in a roundabout way without directly naming it. For example, instead of saying "car," you could say "a vehicle used for transportation on roads." This technique can be used to add more detail or create a sense of mystery in your writing.
Yes, it is possible to use circumlocution to avoid answering a question directly. This technique involves speaking or writing in a roundabout way, using excessive words or tangents, so as to not provide a straightforward answer. However, this can be seen as evasive and frustrating for the person seeking a direct response.

Circumlocution has many meanings, what it reminds me of is sign language, so just say it in a sentence involving sign langauge. for example: The kid used circumlocution to let the parent know he wanted to buy the videogame. another way would be; the teacher looked at the kid with circumlocution as if to say he was doing something wrong. Hope that helped! :D That is not even close to what it means, it means an unessicarily (i suck at spelling) large amount of words used to express an idea, to get around the fact that you don't want to come out directly and say it. Like if a kid wanted a new video game, instead of just asking for it, he would first say a whole bunch of stuf to coax his mother into buying it, when he could have just asked..... I talk alot!
