Unlike a pickle or a chipmunk, a human is a person. You can identify a human by the two legs it stands on, its upright stature, its high intelligence, and its speech that you'll understand if you're one, too. Human was first recorded in the mid 13th century, and owes its existence to the Middle French humain “of or belonging to man.” That word, in turn, comes from the Latin humanus, thought to be a hybrid relative of homo, meaning “man,” and humus, meaning “earth.” Thus, a human, unlike birds, planes, or even divine spirits up above, is a man firmly rooted to the earth. All forms of 'human' will appear on average once every 21 pages. dehumanisation dehumanised dehumanization dehumanized human humanise humanism humanity humanize humanlike humanly humanness humans inhuman nonhuman subhuman superhuman unhuman dehumanise humanisation humanist humanistic humanitarianism humanitarian humanities dehumanize humanization inhumanity |
