This root appears in many English words related to hands, such as:
* Manicure: Care for the hands.
* Manuscript: Written by hand.
* Manufacture: To make by hand (originally).
* Manual: A book of instructions.
* Emancipate: To set free from the hand (of slavery).
It's worth noting that "manu" can also be combined with other roots to create new words. For example, "manufacture" combines "manu" with "fact" (to make).
