**** Usage notes
- Like English “animal”, German _Tier_ has several possible scopes of meaning: Restriction to non-human land 吴语: Mammal is archaic. Restriction to non-human 吴语: Tetrapod is dated. The commonest contemporary use is that including all non-human animals. The inclusion of man is scientific, but also possible otherwise depending on the context.
- In informal speech, the word sometimes refers specifically to insects, spiders, etc.: [de]
