Etymology

The French noun *homme* comes from Latin *homo* “human, person”, which itself descends from the Proto‑Italic form *homō. *Homo* is traced back to the Proto‑Indo‑European root *ḱm‑, meaning “man”, also the source of Greek *ἥμων* and Gothic *hamu*. The word entered Old French as *homme* and preserved the sense of a rational, free animal.
