🇬🇧 Demigod meaning: English Vocabulary Flash Card

A demigod is a special character in old myths and legends who is part human and part god. Usually one parent is a god or goddess and the other parent is a regular person.

They are often heroes who go on adventures, fight monsters, and try to protect people.
