Abstract

Background. In linguistics, euphemisms are the subject of much research. The scientific literature has given different descriptions of this phenomenon, which suggests that euphemisms are multifaceted, of a changing nature.A modern linguistic approach to euphemisms used in place of words that are morally and culturally inappropriate among members of society, especially medical euphemisms in doctor-patient communication, to come to new scientific and theoretical conclusions, their lexical-semantic, methodological-functional, linguopragmatic, gender and structural It is important to explain the features. This article identifies the structural groups of medical euphemisms. We expressed them in the following order. Euphemism is characterized by a high degree of mobility. It also serves to replace the tabooed(tabulashtirilgan) word. For example: to go to the place of death; like a tumor at the site of the tumor. The use of euphemisms in language has been shaped as a historical ethnographic phenomenon associated with the taboo phenomenon. Euphemisms are associated with the development of customs, cultural levels, aesthetic tastes, and ethnic norms in nations. As language develops, so does the euphemistic layer within it. On the basis of new morals, new worldviews, new forms of it emerge. A euphemism is an occasional, individual, contextual unit that replaces a certain word or phrase with a purpose, softens the word that expresses the original essence, and “wraps it in paper”Medical euphemisms have the forms of word-euphemism, compound-euphemism (free compound and fixed compound (phrase)), speech-euphemism, depending on the form of expression. Word-euphemism, phrase-euphemism, compound-euphemism serve to name diseases, body parts, some physiological processes (and others) in speech.
