Etymology of RETARDS

The word "retard" is derived from the Latin word "retardare", which means "to slow down" or "to delay". This Latin term was formed from the prefix "re-" (meaning "back" or "again") and the verb "tardare" (meaning "to delay" or "to be slow"). Over time, the word "retard" has evolved to take on derogatory connotations and has been used as an offensive term to refer to individuals with intellectual disabilities.
