fellow human being
Another person who is seen as part of the same community or society as oneself. The term emphasizes the social and ethical relationship to others.
Wir sollten unseren Mitmenschen mit Respekt und Hilfsbereitschaft begegnen.
We should treat our fellow human beings with respect and a willingness to help.
The prefix 'mit-' means 'together' or 'with'. A 'Mitmensch' (fellow human being) is therefore a person who belongs to society together with you. You find the same pattern in words like 'Mitbewohner' (roommate/housemate) or 'Mitschüler' (classmate).
Er ist ein sehr rücksichtsvoller Mitmensch.
He is a very considerate fellow human being.
'Mitmensch' (fellow human being) is more than just 'another person'. The word has a social and ethical dimension and emphasizes the responsibility and connection we have toward other people.
Nächstenliebe bedeutet, sich um seine Mitmenschen zu kümmern.
Charity means caring for one's fellow human beings.
The word is often used in contexts that describe social behavior. Common phrases are 'auf seine Mitmenschen Rücksicht nehmen' (to show consideration for one's fellow human beings), 'seinen Mitmenschen helfen' (to help one's fellow human beings), or 'Verantwortung für die Mitmenschen übernehmen' (to take responsibility for fellow human beings).
Man sollte auf seine Mitmenschen Rücksicht nehmen und nicht so laut sein.
You should show consideration for your fellow human beings and not be so loud.
