I believe your answer is A but I'm not 100% sure. A euphemism is basically a gentler term for something harsh, like if someone died, to make it less blunt we would say they passed away. Let me know if this helped.

Answer: The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

EUPHEMISM is a figure of speech by which the speaker does not call things by their real name. For example, some people say "he passed away" instead of "he died", "pregnancy interruption" instead of "abortion".

Hence, euphemism is used to avoid hurting feelings when the speaker addresses a delicate topic.
