No, that is a common misconception. We didn't evolve directly from monkeys, but we do share a common ancestor with monkeys. We also share many similarities with them, the first being we are both primates.

Humans not only share a common ancestor with monkeys, but with every single organism on Earth. While humans and plants may not seem to have anything in common, we share a common ancestor with them that dates back billions of years.

Humans evolved from prehistoric apes a few million years ago, who were much like modern apes, but not exactly. Unlike any other primate alive today, these apes began to walk upright. This evolutionary milestone would help pave the way for future human evolution.

The Darwinian theorem of evolution dictates that humans did not descend from monkeys, but rather we (both humans and monkeys, apes too), descended from some common ancestor. A common misconception about evolution is that humans evolved from monkeys when in truth we evolved from so other entity entirely.
