What Is Doublespeak?

Doublespeak is language that deliberately distorts, disguises, or reverses the

meaning of words.
Doublespeak is used to sound more polite, to be politically correct, and to hide
negativity.

Four Types Of Doublespeak

Euphemism - An inoffensive or positive
word or phrase used to avoid, unpleasant, or
distasteful
reality.
Jargon - The specialized language of a
trade, profession, or similar group. It is often
us pretentious, obscure, and esoteric
terminology used to give an air of
profundity, authority, and prestige to
speakers and their subject matter.

Gobbledygook (Bureaucratese) - Simply a

matter of piling on words, of overwhelming
the audience with words, the bigger the
words and the longer the sentences the
better.
Inflated Language - Make the ordinary
seem extraordinary. Basically to make
everyday things seem impressive, and give
an air of important to people, situations, or
things that wouldn't normally be considered
important.
