carnal knowledge

the time.”
(Stabroek News, 2016)
Furthermore, there are also terms that express the act in a gentle way. As 
the sexual intercourse is related to love, this theme appears in some euphemistic 
alternatives. The examples below show that the substitution with love might 
function as a noun or as a verb phrase. The function here is clearly softening but 
not the concealing. These kinds of euphemistic names might be seen very often in 
girls’ or women’s magazines.
 “But 
love-making
commonly requires planning to ensure it actually happens in 
your busy lives.”

informal and seldom can be found in newspapers where the terms such as 
have 
sex
or 
sexual intercourse
are preferred. If these colloquial euphemisms occur in 
press it is usually women’s or men’s magazines in which the style does not have 
to be formal.

 “The sheer terror of 
going to bed with
a new man after a mid-life divorce”
(Glaser, 2013) 
“We used to be more creative 
in bed
and have sex three or four times a week, 
until that diminished to once every two months.”
(Conolly, 2014)
