Man

From The Anglish Moot

Man is a wight, and a milchwight. Like all milchwights, man has four limbs, two of which are arms. Man is almost alone in making tools, and wholly alone in its skill with speech.

Man stands upright most of the time, and walks almost only on its hindlimbs, leaving the forelimbs free to handle and work with the hands. This handling of things is helped by the gainstanding thumb, which most other apes do not have.
