- 1自閉的、有自閉症的（台灣說「自閉症」；不要當罵人的話）
Autistic describes a person whose brain works in the way doctors call autism — or things tied to that (an autistic child, autistic traits). Older books, and the tidy dictionary line, say it is a mental problem that stops people talking properly or making friends. That picture is too sharp, and often . Autism is a spread of ways of being, not one closed box. Some autistic people speak easily; some use few words, or none. Some want friends very much but find eye contact, small talk, or sudden noise hard work. Some notice tiny patterns other people miss. The word has been used since 1913; a doctor named Leo Kanner gave the modern clinical sense in 1943. In careful talk now, many autistic adults say “I am autistic” (they want it as part of who they are). Some families still say “has autism”. Online, people also stretch the word as a joke or an insult. That use is cruel, and students should not copy it.
組成From autism + -istic (or -tic). First used in 1913. The modern clinical sense is from 1943, with Leo Kanner.
