no no, i am not trying to say something unpleasant

what i meant was, the term or word used to describe a situation where instead of being blunt, you choose softer-sounding word so as not to be so hurtful

no. the intending is pure and truthful..not used to mock or insult or insinuate

but rather, for example, instead of saying that person died....say that person is no longer with us

act that uses soft, kinder words to describe a situation
