The word "mute" can be considered politically incorrect or insensitive when used to describe individuals with speech disabilities. Many prefer terms like "non-verbal" or "speech-impaired," as these are more respectful and accurate. Additionally, "mute" can carry negative connotations, suggesting a lack of agency or voice, which may not reflect the experiences of those it describes. It's essential to use language that empowers rather than marginalizes individuals with disabilities.
