Hi All,
In many places I have heard people refer to persons without sight as "A
Blind". Collectively such people are often called "Blinds".
Are people who cannot see a separate species like Tiger, Man, Blind, Lion,
Donkey and so on?
This is my personal view as a communicator that people without sight must be
referred to as Blind person or as blind people and not as a blind.
Please note that this mail is not a personal attack on any individual. I
thought I would take the liberty of pointing out this commonly made error.
With best regards,
George
