I have a KDS challenge for you guys.

Describe Autism in ONE WORD. One word only.

I wonder who will come up with what word describes autism the most.

Mine is WARRIOR. What's yours?

Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu

translates roughly as "The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the slider, climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about, played his nose flute to his loved one".

Yes it is , it was used as the opening credits of The Kenny Everett show ( UK comedy show from the 70's ). I dont know if I have autism so couldn't describe it in one word so posted a word that has stuck im my head for decades and possibly my earliest memory of echolalia.
