Anthropomorphic: Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human characteristics and qualities to non-human beings, objects, natural or supernatural phenomena. A form of personification (applying human or animal qualities to inanimate objects), anthropomorphism is similar to prosopopoeia (adopting the persona of another person). Animals, the forces of nature, and unseen or unknown authors of chance are frequent subjects of anthropomorphosis.

The term comes from two Greek words, (anthropos), meaning "human", and (morphe), meaning "shape" or "form."

In religion and mythology, "anthropomorphism" refers to the perception of a divine being or beings in human form, or the recognition of human qualities in these beings. Many mythologies are almost entirely concerned with anthropomorphic deities who express human characteristics such as jealousy, hatred, or love.
