In other words, language users choose euphemisms mainly because of factors such as the social relationship between the two sides of the conversation, or the formality of the conversation from the scene. Therefore, euphemism has become the pragmatic choice of language users in certain occasions of communication. This pragmatic choice is not arbitrary, but is conscious lying based on context factors, including the participant's formality, scene, medium, topic, and even gender. In short, when people use euphemism, they use contextual information to determine whether euphemism is needed and the degree of euphemism is expressed. This is consistent with the suitability of following the principle of politeness.
