deaf-muteness
Deaf-muteness refers to a condition in which an individual is both unable to hear (deaf) and unable to speak (mute). In most cases, deaf-muteness is present from birth due to genetic causes or problems during pregnancy or childbirth. However, it's important to note that the term is outdated and may be considered offensive by some individuals, as many people with hearing and speaking impairments can communicate effectively using sign language or assistive technologies. Professionals nowadays generally use the terms "profoundly deaf" and "nonverbal".
