  To sum up, as an important language phenomenon, euphemism will surely have an influence on the human language. A euphemism is the substitution of a mild or vague expression for a harsh or blunt one. It is applied to achieve polish ness and politeness to lessen the degree of unpleasantness and offensiveness. Orientated and developed from different cultural backgrounds,English and Chinese have tremendous differences. English euphemisms have their own distinctive features,and like stammers or tears,euphemisms in English will be created whenever a man can’t call a spade a spade. Therefore,barriers emerge when people in China communicate with ones from English-speaking countries. With the help of adequate mutual understanding of cultural differences and with the development of communications,Chinese people can easily use English euphemisms to talk with native English-speakers. Understanding and having a good command of the euphemism can be understood more effectively. The use and understanding of euphemisms in English become indispensable if one wishes to understand thoroughly English cultural backgrounds including their different approach to life and ways of thinking.
