My experiencing rooming with a Christian
|
I think the most poignant euphemism for death is 'got away'. It's only religious in a very tangential sense and became common during the periods of starvation and oppression in Ireland. The best sense of the term is that the deceased had finally escaped from a life of misery and want.
