假省笔法(故意省略重要部分而引人注意);
noun
a passing over with brief mention in order to emphasize rhetorically the suggestiveness of what is omitted (as in "I confine to this page the volume of his treacheries and debaucheries")
Late Latin & Greek; Late Latin paraleipsis, paralipsis, from Greek paraleipsis neglect, omission, paraleipsis, from paraleipein to neglect, omit, leave untold (from para- para- >entry 1 + leipein to leave) + -sis
1 That is a rhetorical device known as paraleipsis — saying something by professing not to say it — and its use to suggest the Saudis were somehow justified in killing Khashoggi makes me want to throw up.
