They're able to say it. It's an insult.
I read a theory once that "daimon", the Ferengi title for captain, could translate to "good/lead merchant" or something along those lines.
So if we assume that's true, it's possible that "hewmon" means something like "shitty merchant", and it's just pure coincidence it basically sounds like human.
Ahh yes, the Monkeigh defense. I always knew the Ferengi were really space elves!
