migration
   forcible deportation as slave labour or for killing
   One of the Nazi evasions used in France:
    So 'deportation' was labelled Abwanderung (migration), Evakuierung (evacuation), Umseidlung (resettlement) and, closer to reality but still not that close, Verschickung zur Zwangarbeit (sending away for forced labour). (Ousby, 1997)
