Аннотация:The article is devoted to the political correctness phenomenon and euphemisation as one the most common linguistic strategies. The analysis and classifcation of euphemisms from Politically Correct Bedtime Stories by J.F. Garner enables the author to come to the conclusion that euphemisms are used to create an ironic effect and, on the whole, the political correctness phenomenon may be viewed as the target of satire in the book.
