Exemplos unilingues (não verificados pela redação)

The novel is written from the point of view of an anonymous narrator, who continually complains about his poor writing skills and often uses circumlocution.

en.wikipedia.org

An early way out was to carry the circumlocutions one degree furtherfinding impersonal ways of saying what was needful, avoiding both personal pronoun and title.

en.wikipedia.org

So, to complete the circumlocution, which seems to be my favorite geometric form, you shouldn't confuse sallet with salad.

www.pressrepublican.com

Today, it is used as a euphemism or circumlocution meaning a lie or untruth.

en.wikipedia.org

Well, except the government enjoys circumlocution, there is no need to continue to set up task forces that only reveal already known results.
