Un bárbaro es, etimológicamente, un extranjero, específicamente alguien cuya lengua y costumbres difieren de las del hablante. En la antigua Grecia, el término designaba a los no griegos, mientras que en el mundo romano se refería más generalmente a los pueblos que vivían fuera de la esfera cultural y política del imperio. En el inglés moderno, la palabra ha desarrollado un sentido peyorativo, comúnmente significando una "persona grosera, salvaje o incivilizada".
