human

EnglishEdit

EtymologyEdit

Borrowed from Middle French humain, from Latin hūmānus (“of or belonging to a man, human, humane”), from homo (“man, human”). Spelling human has been predominant since the early 18th century.

Displaced Old English guma (whence Modern English groom and obsolete/dialectal English gome), with which it is cognate, and wer.

AdjectiveEdit

human (comparative more human, superlative most human)

1. (not comparable) Of or belonging to the species Homo sapiens or its closest relatives.
   • 2013 June 7, David Simpson, “Fantasy of navigation”, in The Guardian Weekly, volume 188, number 26, page 36:

     Like most human activities, ballooning has sponsored heroes and hucksters and a good deal in between. For every dedicated scientist patiently recording atmospheric pressure and wind speed while shivering at high altitudes, there is a carnival barker with a bevy of pretty girls willing to dangle from a basket or parachute down to earth.

2. (comparable) Having the nature or attributes of a human being.

   To err is human; to forgive is divine.

   • 1922, Ben Travers, chapter 1, in A Cuckoo in the Nest^[1]:

     She was like a Beardsley Salome, he had said. And indeed she had the narrow eyes and the high cheekbone of that creature, and as nearly the sinuosity as is compatible with human symmetry.

   • 1963, Margery Allingham, chapter 20, in The China Governess^[2]:

     The story struck the depressingly familiar note with which true stories ring in the tried ears of experienced policemen. No one queried it. It was in the classic pattern of human weakness, mean and embarrassing and sad.

   • 2011 August 17, Holman W. Jenkins, Jr., The Many Wars of Google: Handset makers will learn to live with their new ‘frenemy’, Business World, Wall Street Journal,

     Google wouldn't be human if it didn't want some of this loot, which buying Motorola would enable it to grab.
