Which statement is an example of understatement in this excerpt? the criticism of the practice would be levied "very unjustly." women becoming breeders would be a "loss to the publick." some people "might be apt to" criticize the practice. many women would "become breeders themselves."

Hello. This question is incomplete. The excerpt is missing so you can answer it. The excerpt for this question is:

"Read the excerpt from "A Modest Proposal." Then as to the females, it would, I think, with humble submission, be a loss to the publick, because they soon would become breeders themselves: And besides, it is not improbable that some scrupulous people might be apt to censure such a practice, (although indeed very unjustly) as a little bordering upon cruelty, which, I confess, hath always been with me the strongest objection against any project, how well soever intended."

Some people "might be apt to" criticize the practice.

Explanation:

Euphemism is a figure of language in the Portuguese language, a mechanism that aims to soften a word or expression that may be rude or unpleasant. The euphemism is the exchange of terms or expressions that may offend someone for softer ones, either because they are unkind or rude.

The phrase "Some people might be able to criticize the practice" is an example of euphemism, as being able to criticize "the practice" was used as a way of softening the real meaning of the practice of raising children to be devoured in the future.
