Wiktionary examples

These source excerpts show how euthanasie appears in context. They illustrate usage; the definition above remains the entry’s reference meaning.

Dans la discussion actuelle sur l’euthanasie, ceux qui ont une réelle expérience de la mort ne sont pas si nombreux.
Le débat est souvent biaisé ; l’alternative n’est pas entre une dysthanasie, mort douloureuse & une euthanasie, mort adoucie, mais entre une cacothanasie, mort rendue pénible par l’acharnement thérapeutique & non par la maladie même & une mort, au risque de choquer, je dirais bio, à la maison entouré des siens.
