люди с ограниченными возможностями (The word handicapped is first recorded in the early 20th century in the sense referring to a person's mental or physical disabilities. It was the standard term in British English until relatively recently but, like many terms in this sensitive field, its prominence has been short-lived. In reference to physical disability, it is now rather dated and may even be found offensive. It has been superseded by more recent terms such as disabled. (NOED) Alexander Demidov) |
