Doublespeak by William Lutz

Doublespeak by William Lutz

Doublespeak is a kind of writing technique wherein words are replaced with better sounding ones. It makes writing seem more For example, people use "passed away" instead of "died." See? Doesn't that sound better? There are 4 types of doublespeak: euphemism, jargon, gobbledygook and inflated language. 

Personally, I seem to be interested in jargon because I can relate to it. I think that every age group has their own jargon and sometimes it is quite funny! Euphemism and inflated language is sort of the same in meaning. Gobbledygook is quite interesting as well. It is what I could call "nosebleed."

Overall, I think that doublespeak is an "okay" style or writing. I absolutely have nothing against it. It just needs to fit in the right kind of writing or the right topic.
