"New words added to the Jewish vocabulary"
I believe when the Rebbe met the injured Isrseli soldiers in 770 in the late 70s, he coined the term: "mitzuyonim", i.e. the exceptional ones. Focusing on the positive, not the negative. This later was expanded to the now ubiquitous "special needs" children, not "disabled" or "handicapped".
Ditto for his choice of name for a hospital. "House of healing" not "house of the sick".
