manuscrito

/manusˈkɾito/ · B2 · adj

handwritten

📜✍️ manuscrito = manu (hand) + scrito (written) → hand-written

Latin manu means by hand and scriptus means written. Spanish keeps both parts: mano is hand, and escrito is written. So manuscrito is literally written by hand, which gives handwritten or a manuscript.
