yeah person is more accurate. I wonder what the etymology of Mensch is, Lohnwort from Latin, long evolved, like Muenze? Umlaut applied to a derivative of Mann with an i involved, also long enough evolved the spelling simplified?
I no longer have my German language dictionary(-ies) or Duden books nor access to such where I am, sadly.
