Etymology

**Surhumain** is a modern French compound formed in the 19th century by attaching the preposition *sur-* (from Latin *super*, “above, over”) to *humain* (from Latin *humanus*, “human”, itself derived from *homo* “man”). The term literally means “above man,” and it entered common use to denote beings or abilities surpassing ordinary human limits. Its construction follows the usual French pattern of prefixing *sur-* to denote excess or superiority.
