"retarded" 的Chinese (Traditional)翻译
释义
這個詞過去曾用於醫學或技術語境,表示智力、身體或發展遲緩,但在現代日常英語中,用來形容人通常帶有冒犯性。在某些技術語境裡,它仍可表示被減慢、延遲或受抑制。
用法说明(Chinese (Traditional))
請特別注意:現代英語裡不要用這個詞形容人,因為它通常被視為侮辱性說法。更安全的替代詞要看語境,例如 'intellectual disability'、'developmental delay'、'slow'、'delayed' 或 'slowed'。在技術搭配中,如 'flame-retardant',或較舊的說法如 'retarded growth',它表示減緩或延遲,並不是在辱罵人。
