While an <u>oxymoron</u> is a figure of speech where two opposing words in meanings are used together intentionally for creating a special effect, an <u>euphemism</u> is concerned with the use of a word or phrase that replaces another with a less offensive or vulgar meaning.
<u>Examples of oxymorons are</u>:
- 2. Ted thought the game was <u>bittersweet</u> because his team won, but he was injured. <em>(The game was pleasant because of the result, but it included a bit of suffering since Ted ended up injured)</em>
- 4. After his ordeal, Richard looked like a member of the <u>living dead</u>. <em>(Richard seemed to be alive but with a dead soul)</em>
<u>Examples of euphenisms are</u>:
- 1.Nick was <u>stretching the truth</u> when he said that he was working on his second novel. <em>(Nick was saying something that wasn't exactly true...)</em>
- 3.The horse was <u>put to sleep</u> after injuring its leg at the derby. <em>(The horse was sacrified...)</em>
