In the year [[5,000,000,000]], the [[Ninth Doctor]] and [[Rose Tyler]] listened while [[Lady Cassandra]] flatly implied that true humans were superior to the human-ish. Though genetics were a part of the way Cassandra vaguely defined the word, the term had at least a somewhat {{w|demonym|demonymic}} meaning for her, as she associated "true humanity" with having been born on Earth.

Technically, only the narrator of ''[[Down (novel)|Down]]'' uses the term ''human-ish'', allowing the [[SSSSSSS]] characters to use the more blatantly [[racist]] ''subhuman''. However, the term does appear in dialogue in ''The End of the World''. Hence, from the book, we derive the hyphenated spelling and from the episode comes the fact that the term is definitely known by average characters in the [[DWU]]. | Technically, only the narrator of ''[[Down (novel)|Down]]'' uses the term ''human-ish'', allowing the [[SSSSSSS]] characters to use the more blatantly [[racist]] ''subhuman''.
