Correct spelling for the English word "in humanely" is [ɪn hjuːmˈe͡ɪnli], [ɪn hjuːmˈeɪnli], [ɪ_n h_j_uː_m_ˈeɪ_n_l_i] (IPA phonetic alphabet).
The term "in humanely" is an adverb used to describe actions or behaviors that lack compassion, mercy, or basic consideration for the well-being and dignity of others, particularly in relation to animals or vulnerable individuals. It is derived from the word "inhumane," an adjective that refers to actions or behaviors that are cruel, harsh, or indifferent to the suffering or rights of living beings.
When someone acts "in humanely," they are typically disregarding the fundamental principles of decency, kindness, and empathy that should guide their treatment of others. This may involve subjecting individuals to unnecessary pain, suffering, abuse, or neglect, showing callousness or indifference towards their rights or welfare, or failing to exercise compassion or understanding in situations that require it.
Examples of inhumane behavior can include the mistreatment or exploitation of animals, disregard for the safety or well-being of workers, neglect or mistreatment of vulnerable individuals such as children, the elderly, or disabled persons, and engaging in acts of violence or oppression that disregard human rights. Acting in humanely can also extend to neglecting the environment, leading to its degradation, pollution, or causing harm to ecosystems and wildlife.
The term "in humanely" serves as a critical reminder of the importance of respecting the inherent dignity and worth of all living beings, and serves as a condemnation of actions that betray this fundamental ethical principle.
The word "inhumanely" is formed by adding the suffix "-ly" to the adjective "inhumane".
The term "inhumane" comes from the Latin word "inhumanus", which is derived from the combination of the prefix "in-" (meaning "not") and the word "humanus" (meaning "human"). Thus, "inhumane" originally meant "not human" or "not pertaining to humans".
Over time, its meaning has evolved to describe cruel, lacking compassion, or showing a disregard for the welfare of others, especially in comparison to the kindness and empathy typically associated with human behavior. By adding the "-ly" suffix to "inhumane", "inhumanely" is formed, allowing it to function as an adverb to describe actions done without humanity or compassion.
