person
'die Person' and 'die Einzelperson' both mean an individual human being. 'Person' is the general and normal word. 'Einzelperson' emphasizes that someone is being considered on their own and not as part of a group, family, company, or team. The words can be confused because both refer to a human being. If it is simply about one person, 'Person' is enough. If the contrast with a group is important, 'Einzelperson' is more precise.
