Yes and no, depending on how the words are used. If some one were to say "I like furries" and someone were to say "I like anthros" chances are they mean the same thing. However if someone were to say "I am a furry" Meaning they are part of the furry fandom, and someone were to say "I am an anthro" It desnt have the same meaning.
Anthro comes from the greek word anthrÅpos which means Human. If the furry fandom anthro is usedas short for anthropomorphic meaning hunam like or having human qualities (ie: talking, walking of 2 feet instead of 4, ect)
Anthropomorphism is giving something (anything) not human, human traits or qualities. Furries are a subdivision of anthros
When a fursona has the word 'anthro' applied to it (it's probably already anthropomorphic, as a furry, anyway), it's referring to the body shape. That means the character has a human's general body composition. Feral, as another example of a body shape, would imply a more natural animal's build.
Yes, you'll need to save up a few thousand dollars. Then go on line and search "fursuit makers". Send them a picture of the animal you want to 'become' and then wait a few months and you will receive your anthro creature costume (fursuit) via mail. Alternatively, you could also make your own costume if you have time.
I'm teaching an English writing class in Korea and our class was wondering this. The problem is that Zoomorphism is the closest.Personification and Anthropomorphism are technically the same, giving human qualities to an animal or thing. Personification is objects and Anthro is animals.By this logic, zoomorphism would only be to people, but there is no equivalent to personification.The greek meaning, though, of anthropomorphism is to change something from human to something else, so zoomorphism would technically work. Morph means change, anthro person, zoo animal.My class is considering making up a new word, but so far Animalification is the best we have. :)
A furry is someone who is a fan of anthro animals, or animal with human traits ie: Mickey Mouse. The creatures themselves are also considered furry, if this is what you meant, IMO sorry you cant turn into a cartoon animal.
Are you referring to a name for a fursona? Anagrams always work well, though it can be hard to execute. Try using this site: http://www.lerfjhax.com/scrambler You could also try to use other languages to make a name. Try using Babelfish for this. You could also use the more use the more uncreative approach of using your screenname. And finally you could use a common name like "John" or "Blake". Hope that helped
