Manifestation of the euphemistic potential of a lexic unit in the framework of a relational model

In this article, the author attempts to describe the function of the euphemistic potential metric, followed by an analysis of the changes in the meaning of the linguistic variable depending on the degree of deviation from the «standard». The results of computation formed the basis for the classification of intelligent objects with different levels of quality of euphemistic potential: euphemisms-automatisms, euphemisms proper, and euphemistic simulacra.
