description Just like onomastics that preserve the oldest stages of language development, euphemisms can also be used and studied from the point of view of construction, giving us a valuable material for many types and ways of word formation in the Albanian language, as well as for adverbial means. The earlier they are, the greater the value from a linguistic point of view. Not all ways of word formation can be illustrated by euphemisms.” Likewise, which is part of euphemisms (from old Greek eu "good" + phemi "I say", speak), are words used to name things and objects, whose names for various reasons have been avoided from use. So, we are dealing with existing lexical units that mark a new referent. Euphemisms, in essence, are the transfer of the name from one object to another, they are figurative transitions of meaning. Such arguments bring quite a few research and study difficulties, referring to a foreign language, even more so when it comes to a classical language, dead for centuries, as is the case of Latin. In addition, it should be known that euphemisms do not have the same characteristics from language to language, because this linguistic phenomenon does not remain only on the linguistic level, but also extends and deepens on the ethnolinguistic level, otherwise in the entire culture of a people
