This is a good point, excuse a quibble: 'werman' did not seem to actually see usage in Old English, although 'wepman', meaning male human, did in Middle English. I'm basing this on a discussion at Wiktionary: > Their point, that Old English mann was not specifically male, is correct; but their example of the specifically male word is apparently mistaken. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Talk:werman https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Talk:werman And 'wepman' is documented on the Middle English Compendium. https://quod.lib.umich.edu/m/middle-english-dictionary/dictionary?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search_field=hnf&q=wepman https://quod.lib.umich.edu/m/middle-english-dictionary/dicti...
