noun
[plural] ◆She spends a lot of her free time caring for the disabled.她把很多空余时间用来照料残疾人。ⓘ The expressions disabled people or people with disabilities are often preferred to the disabled because they sound more personal. * disabled people或people with disabilities比the disabled易为人所接受,因为听起来较个人化。■handicapped (old-fashioned, sometimesoffensive) disabled有残疾的;丧失能力的;有智力障碍的◆The accident left him physically handicapped.那次事故使他落下了残疾。NOTE辨析 Disabled or handicapped?The word handicapped to mean permanently physically or mentally disabled is now rather old-fashioned, can be offensive, and should be avoided. Instead of saying that sb is mentally disabled/handicapped, say that they have a learning disability. * handicapped表示有永久性生理缺陷或智力障碍的用法现在颇为过时,且有冒犯之意,应避免使用。表示有智力障碍应该说have a learning disability,不要说mentally disabled/handicapped。■lame(of people or animals) unable to walk well because of an injury to the leg or foot(人或动物)瘸的,跛的◆The accident left her slightly lame.那次事故使她的腿有点跛。◆His horse had gone lame.他的马瘸了。ⓘ When talking about people, lame usually refers to a long-term disability. If you have hurt your leg or foot temporarily, you can say that you limp or walk with a limp. However, when a horse goes lame, this can be only a temporary injury. * lame用于人时通常指长期的残疾。如果是腿脚暂时性受伤,可以用动词limp或walk with a limp(瘸着走);但go lame可指马暂时性腿瘸。
