The term "person" cannot be exclusively attached to human being since not all persons are considered human being and vice-versa.

A business entity is a person, which it is not a human being. On the other hand slave is a human being, but it is not considered as a person by virtue of his being vested of his rights as a human being, which being considered as a mere object not an existing person.

To speak of man as a being-with-others is to speak of man as a person. Man as a person means that man is unique, a who, a subject, and a self; man is never alone in his existence in the world; man has that indelible trademark of his "being-with" existence in the world.

Man's personhood should not be contrasted to man's humanity and individuality. The Personhood and man's individuality manifest man's individual unique personhood.

Personhood means pagkatawo or pagkatao.
