What is the adjective form of Humanidad

Question

I am working on a spanish assignment and there is not phrase with it. What is the adjective form of humanidad?

Answer 1

I would try humano or humana. Here's the definition from this site.

humano, -a

adjective

1. human (del hombre)
2. humane (compasivo)

Answer 2

and there is not phrase with it

So are we all in agreement? Which adjective form is appropriate depends on which context (definition) of the noun "humanidad" is referring to?

It seems to be so, Qfreed. There are a few meanings to the word humanity. When I checked Webster's, I found 4 meanings. - Rikko, MAY 13, 2010

Answer 3

If by humanity you are referring to the quality of being humane, then "humanitario", which translates to humanitarian, could be the adjective.

Answer 4

humanizar

humanizar transitive verb 1. to humanize, to make more human humanizarse pronomial verb 2. to become more human

Given this you can make an adjective but what adjective are you after? What is it you want to say? "That's a humane approach"? "They claim it's a "humanised" solution?

Answer 5

I can't even think of an adjective in English. "Human" is probably closest but misses out on the concept of humanity as much greater than that. "Humanitarian" also fails as it is not actually related to "human" or "humanity" but to "humane" a different concept. Maybe it's that "humanitarian" is misused.

Geofc, I just checked Webster's definition of humanity and one of them is "the quality or state of being humane". :) - Rikko, MAY 12, 2010

"Humanise" as opposed to "dehumanise"? - lagartijaverde, MAY 12, 2010
