A dysphemism brings about negative feelings about the word, whereas, a euphemism brings about positive feelings.

Certainly! Dysphemisms are derogatory or unpleasant terms used instead of neutral or positive ones. Examples of dysphemisms for jail include "the slammer," "the clink," "the pen," and "the joint." These terms are often used informally and can carry negative connotations or evoke a sense of confinement and punishment.
It is particularly in Antigone's last scene that euphemisms are found in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, euphemisms are round about ways of discussing delicate or heart wrenching topics. For example, Theban Princess Antigone offers euphemisms for death. For example, she speaks of Hades giving sleep to mortals. She then talks of setting forth on her last trip, which is a euphemism for death.
An example of a euphemism expression is "he kicked the bucket" instead of simply saying he died.

Yes, the Bible contains euphemisms in certain passages. For example, "know" is often used as a euphemism for sexual intercourse (Genesis 4:1). Additionally, "sleeping" is sometimes used to refer to someone who has died (Matthew 27:52).
Yes, American Sign Language (ASL) does have euphemisms. For example, instead of signing a vulgar word or phrase directly, ASL users may use different signs or gestures to convey the same meaning in a more socially acceptable way. One common example is using the sign for "bathroom" or "toilet" as a euphemism for discussing bodily functions or going to the bathroom.
