Hi everyone!
what’s the difference? when do i use custom and/or manner?
thanks!
Manner is the way of behaving or acting and the way something happens or is done: he answered in an easy manner.
In the plural it’s the way of acting in public: table manners; bad manners; it is bad manners to put your knife in your mouth.
Custom can have the sense of ‘habit’ or ‘usual activity’: we had supper very late, as is our custom.
Another definition of ‘custom’ is ‘tradition’: it’s the custom in that country to marry the children off before they are six years old.
