@ganbold Yeah, I also think that there's a lot of overlap where they are interchangeable like "そういう人いるもんね" and "そういう人間いるもんね", even if 人間 acts much more like "human" you wouldn't say "Yeah sometimes there's humans like that" x3, but in Japanese I guess you can and it doesn't sound too alien, probably not a mistake from your part more than stylistic choice. Those kind of nuance considerations where it could be "uh, I guess it works but no one would say that" and "oh, yeah you can say that, I wouldn't but there's nothing weird about it" really are hell lol

@ganbold There's a 秋宗屋 ゆっくり video that I like that explains the whole history of the term https://youtu.be/LipMrNTOgEg

But basically it's 人 (person) + 間 (space (between), interval) so it used mean "The World" that people live in, the space where people reside, then from that it kinda drifted to mean the people itself but with a focus on the characteristic of an entity to posses humanity more than being a specific person, kinda like "person" vs "human being" I guess

人 is a 人間 the same way a person is a human being and I guess you could play around the term like "その人はもう人間じゃない！" as in "they have lost their humanity" or "that person can no longer be called a human", so that's what happens if 人間 lost 間 maybe (?)

I'm no expert and no native so yeah, that's at least my understanding
