According to different standards,there also exist many other classifications of euphemisms. For example,all euphemisms，whether positive or negative,can be divided into two classes：unconscious and conscious according to whether people remember their original motivations or not. Some euphemisms developed so long ago that hardly anyone remembers how they were originally motivated. Take “indisposition” for instance，the original meaning of the word is “incapacity to deal with something” and its euphemistic meaning is “slight illness or ill health”，which has been frequently used for so long that people hardly think of the original meaning. As in cross-cultural communications, we also cannot avoid mentioning some differences in the use of euphemism. meanings
