  • A euphemism is an appropriate expression used in the place of a phrase or words that may be found inappropriate or offensive.

  • Euphemistic language is commonly used in literature, especially older works, as a way to convey a message without risking the chance of it being barred to censorship for crude language. Example - Pre-owned (Something used).
  • Hence, option A is the correct answer.
