Biped: a two footed animal. A two footed being.
The Latin adverb bis, means twice, two, or two times. The Latin word for foot is pes. The genitive of foot is pedis.
Combine both and you end up with biped, a two footed creature.
According to Plato, man is a featherless biped.
Does that make this a man?
Actually, who cares? Where can I get one of these? I want to trade my car in for one. Imagine the traffic woes you could avoid if you drove this mechanical biped to work!
