Wiki:

Understatement is a form of speech which contains an expression of less strength than what would be expected. This is not to be confused with euphemism, where a polite phrase is used in place of a harsher or more offensive expression. Understatement is a staple of humor in English-speaking cultures, especially in British humor.

Eksempel:

Thats an understatement! There are whole cultures where understatement is bred in the bone. In New England one hears as satisfaction: Its better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. Thats an understatement. Thats something of an understatement. That would be an understatement. Saying that the World Cup sparked interest in soccer in America might be an understatement.
