The Chinese word 残疾 (cánjí) for "disability" is composed of two characters: 残 (cán) and 疾 (jí). The character 残 originally meant "to be broken or damaged", and was often used to describe physical injuries or defects. The character 疾 originally meant "a disease or illness", and was often used to describe medical conditions that affected a person's ability to function normally. Over time, the two characters came to be used together to describe disabilities, which are typically defined as physical or mental impairments that limit a person's ability to participate in everyday activities. The word 残疾 is now commonly used in Chinese to refer to disabilities of all types, including physical disabilities, mental disabilities, and sensory disabilities.
