Etymology

The French noun *inhumain* is a direct borrowing from the Latin adjective *inhumanus*, formed by the negative prefix *in-* + *humanus* (“human”), which itself comes from *homo* (“man”). The noun form entered Middle French in the 16th century, used to denote the quality of being inhuman or an inhuman person, and has been used in this sense up to the present.
