Now,if you want to call humans 'hominids' that is fine, but they fall under a distinct class, which is not an animal.

Are you suggesting that they fall in a different kingdom? I do not see that the classification of "animal" is incorrect. It appears that homonids are vertibrates, and vertibrates are a subset of animals.

Here we go with the playing of terms.

We are talking about a transition from ape to man (correct?) which means from animal to mankind.

So, the transitional species would be a kind of both, now wouldn't he/it?

So the evolutionists are looking for something that is neither completely animal or human.
