Circumlocation is not a Word. Circumlocution is a Word meaning a roundabout or ambiguous figure of speech. It is used often when a Word isn't known but it's attributes are. It is also used to get around saying a Word directly, for example: "where the bad men go" in place for Hell. In a sentence it is a noun: "He avoided the question by answering with circumlocutions."
