Origin / Etymology

From New Latin androides, from Ancient Greek ἀνδρός (andrós, genitive of ἀνήρ (anḗr, “man, human”)) + -ειδής (-eidḗs, itself from εἶδος (eîdos, “form, image, shape, appearance, look”)). Note the form ἀνδρώδης (andrṓdēs, “manly”) already existed in Ancient Greek. By surface analysis, andr- + -oid.
