  Sometimes the word "man" is added in translating the Masculine Gender of Adjectives or Nouns, in which case it is not one of the words given below.

 1.  anthropos = an individual of the Genus Homo; a human being as distinct from animals. See Appendix 98. XVI, for "the Son of man".

 2.  aner = an adult male person. Latin vir, an honorable title (as distinct from a mere "man", No. 1); hence, used of a husband.
 3.  tis = some one, a certain one.

 4.  arren = a male; of the male sex.

 5.  arsen. = The same as No. 4; being the old Ionic form, as No. 4 is the later Attic form.
