I have an article for a future issue of Freelance Traveller that uses the
word "anthropomorphize". It's perfectly correct, but in context it is used
not meaning "attributing human characteristics to an animal or object", but
meaning "attributing the characteristics of a sophont to an animal or
object". I'm willing to leave the word as-is, but if someone can come up
with a different word, even a neologism, that better captures the
generalized meaning, without relying on the Greek root _anthropos_, which
technically means "man" (and excludes "woman"), I'd be appreciative.
