3 hrs confidence:
handicapped Explanation: Este termo é bastante abrangente, mas muito duro, comparado com o termo "quebradinho" Mesmo assim, não percebo por que motivo a Maria não quer utilizar simplesmente "disabled" ou "people with disabilities"! Parece-me uma opção correctíssima ;) Outra hipótese seria "people with different types of difficulties", mas é bastante vago, a meu ver. |
