What is a "euphemism"?

A euphemism is a word or phrase used to replace a term that may be considered harsh, unpleasant, or offensive. It aims to soften the impact of the original term and make it more acceptable in conversation. For example, instead of saying "die," one might say "pass away." Euphemisms are often used in sensitive topics such as death, bodily functions, or discomforting situations. While they can help to convey a message in a gentler way, they may also obscure the truth or make communication less direct.

What is a "dead heat"?

A dead heat is a situation in sports where two or more competitors finish at exactly the same time or with the same score, making it impossible to determine a clear winner. This often happens in races or timed events, and the result is recorded as a tie. In the case of a dead heat, both or all competitors are typically awarded the same position, such as first place or second place, depending on the event rules. It is a rare but exciting outcome, showing that the competitors were evenly matched.
