A person can be neurodivergent or neurotypical based on how their brain works, but a single person is not neurodiverse.
Neurotypical
A neurotypical person is someone without neurodivergent conditions. A neurotypical solution is one made for neurotypical people.
Neurodivergence
Neurodivergent conditions include ADHD, Autism, OCD, Sensory Processing Disorder and specific learning difficulties, like dyslexia, dyscalculia and dysgraphia.
Neuroaffirming
Neuroaffirming or neuro-affirmative refers to practices, approaches, or environments that recognize and affirm the neurodiversity of society and the neurodivergence of individuals.
