As its definition indicates, it comes from the Greek language (anthropómorphos) to Latin (anthropomorphos) and then to our language. That Greek word is the result of the sum of two clearly differentiated elements
-The noun “anthropos”, which can be translated as “human being”.
-The word "morphe", which is synonymous with "figure".
The concept of anthropomorphic allows qualifying that which has a human appearance or form. The idea of anthropomorphism, for its part, alludes to the granting of human characteristics to an object, a plant or an animal. 67222811
