Translations politically [pəˈlɪtɪkəlɪ] ADV → políticamente politically correct [person, attitude, terminology] → políticamente correcto politically incorrect → políticamente incorrecto POLITICALLY CORRECT Se dice que una persona o su comportamiento es politically correct o PC cuando sus actitudes o palabras no reflejan ningún desprecio o insulto hacia grupos minoritarios o con algún tipo de desventaja física o social, tales como disminuidos físicos o psíquicos, minorías étnicas, homosexuales, mujeres, etc. Los que propugnan el uso de este tipo de lenguaje y actitud políticamente correctos creen que con ello desafían los valores que la sociedad occidental ha tratado de imponer sobre el resto del mundo a lo largo de la historia. Sin embargo, el término politically correct se emplea también de forma irónica por las personas que se burlan de este tipo de lenguaje y actitudes por considerarlas excesivas. Entre las expresiones políticamente correctas, algunas de las más conocidas son: Native American en vez de Red Indian (indio americano), visually impaired en vez de blind (ciego) y vertically challenged en vez de short (bajo). politically [pəˈlɪtɪkəli] adv → politiquement politically correct adj → politiquement correct(e) politically incorrect adj → politiquement incorrect politically motivated adj [violence, killing, attack] → à caractère politique; [prosecution] → à caractère politique to be politically motivated [killing, attack] → avoir un caractère politique political party n → parti m politique political prisoner n → prisonnier/ière m/f politique political science n → sciences fpl politiques political scientist n → spécialiste m/f en sciences politiques politically How to thank TFD for its existence?
