American Sign Language

The only sign language I know, which can be bad, because I am deaf, and I have been to other countries, such as Germany, Australia, and Serbia, and their Sign Language is far more complex than ours.

Russia is the hardest compared to American Sign Language...

sausage finger language

when a fat one attempts to type on the keyboard and has extremely large fingers that carry similar looks to that of sausage links frequently causing typos and misspellings.

I could not understand your post with your sausage finger language.

PWD Insiders Language

"PWD Insiders Language" is used within the Persons With Disabilities (PWD) Community. The "PWD Insiders Language" uses acronyms for words, slang terms, and Disability-related words.

PWD 1: I heard that you went to the SSA and applied for SSDI.

PWD 2: No, I applied for SSI at the SSA because I have TRPS-1 which is a complex EDS.

PWD 1: I hate to run but I need to go the CIL/ILC because a group of Wheelies is meeting together to plan for a benefit for a PWD that needs an Assistive Augmentative Communication device and a Hoyer Lift. The Wheelies are also going to discuss DRM, CCA, MFP, MiCASSA. and Crip Ghettos.

PWD 2: You sound like me because I am involved in a benefit for a PWD that needs an electric gimp mobile and other Durable Medical Equipment and the planning meeting is at the PTI Center. After that some of the Wheelchair Junkies are going to eat out with some of the Walkie-Talkies.

Stranger: I could not help but overhear the converstion between you both but I could not understand alot of what both of you were saying.

PWD 1 and PWD 2: It is because we both are using "PWD Insiders Language".

people first language

The practice of using care in language when talking about people with disabilities. For example, one would say "child with a disability" versus "disabled child." This puts the person first and emphasizes the person instead of the disability.

"Person with autism," not "autistic person."

people first language

A type of speech intended to separate the disability from the person. It has become well accepted by non-disabled people who try to advocate for the disabled, but beyond that has numerous flaws. Disabled and particularly autistic people have complained that it treats the disability like something too terrible to be mentioned, something unimportant, or something that can be easily separated from the person. The awkward phrasing also has the tendency to bring out the disability.
In some cases, this form is grammatically correct, if the name of the disability cannot be transformed into an adjective. An often used example is "child with Down's Syndrome" instead of "Down's Syndrome child". No attempt can change Down's Syndrome, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, etc. into an adjective.

I am autistic, not a person with autism. I could use people first language by calling myself a person with femaleness. Everyone would think it odd, but my gender is less essential to who I am than my neurological configuration.
