Ooh, People First Language, huh? Sounds like a fancy way of saying 'don't be a jerk when talking about someone's disability.' Good to know!

C) She is confined to a wheelchair. Hmm, this one's a bit tricky. I guess it's better to say 'uses a wheelchair' to avoid implying the person is 'confined'.

B) She is brain damaged. Yikes, that's a pretty harsh way to describe someone. People First Language is all about respecting the individual.

A) He is disabled. This is not an example of People First Language, as it labels the person by their disability.

D) He is a person with autism. This is the correct example of People First Language, which emphasizes the person first, rather than the disability.

I'm not sure, but I think C) She is confined to a wheelchair could also be an example.
