Race

Race is a designation used on Gern to refer to a sentient person's predominant genetic background.

Like many things, a person's race is less of a concrete fact than on a spectrum on ancestry with any and all species that may have influence that person's genetics over time, but is a useful short hand for the various types of people in the world.
