Human
Any of us
Human refers to a member of the species Homo sapiens—the only surviving species of the genus.
As an adjective, human distinguishes people from animals, machines, or the divine: human trafficking, human trafficking, human trafficking.
To err is human acknowledges our flawed nature.
Something inhuman lacks warmth or compassion; something superhuman exceeds normal limits.
The human condition encompasses the fundamental experiences of mortality, suffering, and meaning that define existence.
