Euphemism in Italian: linguistic interdiction in the vocabulary concerning the feminine sexuality
Abstract
The objective of this analysis is a description of euphemism in the onomastics referring to a
woman through the lexicology of erotica found in everyday circulation. The description is not
merely confined to lexemes referring to a women but also contains words describing parts of her
body, physiological functions and sexual activity. Sexuality belongs to those domain which
constitute a basis for a linguistics ban, indubitably, repression too. Studies of language prove that
linguistic denial is inseparably tied with and present in interhuman communication.
