Hello!

Could anyone be so kind and explain to me how 'metaphor' and 'euphemism'
are related?  In which way are they similar and in which ways do they
differ? Is euphemism a kind of metaphor? Is euphemism part of pragmatics
and metaphor not? Somehow I could not find any literature which gave a
satisfactory answer (most don#t touch on this at all). Thank you very much
for your help!
