Hmm, would a female android really be called an 'android'? Shouldn't it be 'gyndroid' or something equally weird?

I think theyre called "Womanoids"(Like WD40 from the Space Quest 5)

[PrejudiceSucks]

Ah yes, but WD40 is a type of cleaning/lubricant thingy and the game may have been a bit of a joke.

I think they'll be called android-ettes. Or something like that.

Nah. Macaronic words are no fun. Let's do things properly and stick to Greek.:P Hmm, come to think of it, it should probably be a 'gynoid', not a 'gyndroid'...
Are there any Greek people around who could clarify that?

[efthimios]

Well I am greek but I have never heard before anyone trying to change the gender of that word. Main reason because though it uses the male andro in the word, it is an object with no real gender, so when you say android you mean both sexes. Like perhaps, mankind. Something like that.. Now if you wanted to change it my guess (not very good since my greek are just a bit better than my english) would be gynaikoides or easier spelled to pronounced genaekoedaes :blink: That is "gy" like Ge in Gene, "nai" like ne in nevermind, "ko" like ehhh "co" in helicopter, "i" like the first e in gene, "des" like eh the first e in "desiree" (I hope that is how you spell that name).

BUT, since this is just an educated guess, don't take my word for it.

[omg]

now the japs have developed robot women, how long untill the develop robot tentacle?

[A. J. Raffles]

Now that would be truly scary. Do you think they'd give them arms?
