The aim of this paper is to shed light on linguocultural peculiarities of euphemisms that describe the natural death in the German linguistic world image. The research emerges from the quantitative and qualitative perspectives as the analysis is based on the semantic description of the euphemisms under consideration providing numerical characteristics.
