What is another word for brain damaged?
Pronunciation: [bɹˈe͡ɪn dˈamɪd͡ʒd] (IPA) 
The use of the term "brain damaged" can be outdated and often carries negative connotations. Instead, it is better to use more appropriate and respectful synonyms when referring to individuals with cognitive, neurological, or developmental disabilities. Some alternatives include "brain injury survivor," "cognitive impairment," "neurological disorder," "developmental disability," "cognitive disability," and "intellectual disability." These terms accurately describe the individual's condition without reducing them to their disability. Using respectful and appropriate language can help reduce stigmatization and promote inclusivity for individuals with disabilities in our society.
