different between maniple vs manus

English

Pronunciation

• (Received Pronunciation) IPA^(key): /?mæn?p(?)l/
• (General American) IPA^(key): /?mæn?p?l/
• Hyphenation: man?i?ple

Etymology 1

From Late Middle English maniple, manyple (“scarf worn as vestment, maniple”), borrowed from Middle French, Old French maniple, manipule (“handful; troop of soldiers; scarf worn as vestment”) (modern French manipule), from Latin manipulus (“bundle, handful; troop of soldiers”), from manus (“hand”) (ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *(s)meh?- (“to beckon, signal”)) + the weakened root of ple? (“to fill; to fulfil”) (ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *pleh?- (“to fill”)). The English word is cognate with Italian manipulo (“scarf worn as vestment”) (obsolete), manipolo (“handful; troop of soldiers; scarf worn as vestment”).

Sense 2 (“part of a priest’s vestments”) is probably from the fact that the item was originally carried in the hand. It may originate from a handkerchief or napkin worn by Roman consuls as an indication of rank.
