Focusing on the semantic phenomenon of euphemisms, this seminar paper analyzes their use in conversations with children, particularly regarding intimate body parts and obesity—topics often avoided in direct discussions. Utilizing "South Park" as a case study, it provides examples of language play and explores the implications of euphemism use. The paper includes a theoretical background on euphemisms, data collection methodology, and a detailed analysis, concluding with insights on when euphemisms can be beneficial or detrimental in conversations with children.
