Peace
I have come across many situations where a phrase is used to actually mean the opposite … it is almost an oxymoron.
For example …
“I’m bad” — this actually means “I’m good”
Also … “honour killings” … this should actually be called “dishonour killings” or “false-honour murders”
Do you know any?

Like we say in Urdu 'Bura mat maan na' /' 'Agar bura na maano' to say things we know other will not like that.
