Greek euphemisms are expressions that soften or obscure harsh or unpleasant realities, often used to address sensitive topics with more tact. They can involve metaphors, indirect language, or idiomatic phrases that convey meaning without being blunt. For example, instead of saying someone has died, one might say they have "gone to a better place." These euphemisms reflect cultural values of politeness and respect in communication.

In "The Giver," some euphemisms for "bathroom" could include "relief room" or "sanitation station." For "garbage collector," euphemisms might include "clean-up crew" or "waste management worker."
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.
