Dictionary of Problem Words and Expression
Manner born
This expression has come to mean
“accustomed by birth to a high position.”
In this expression,
manner is frequently spelled manor,
through the mistaken idea
that “manor born” means
“born to high estate, to the aristocracy.”
The word should be manner, meaning
“custom,” “habitual practice.”
One should have no trouble with the expression
if he will recall the Shakespearean passage
in which it originated.
In Hamlet,
Horatio asked about the sound of trumpets, guns, and drums.
Hamlet tells him that each time the King (Claudius)
takes a drink, the act is followed by this outburst.
When asked if this uproar is a custom,
Hamlet replies:
“Ay, marry, it is :
/ But to my mind, though I am native here/
And to the manner born, it is a custom/
More honored in the breach than the observance.”

WORDS OFTEN CONFUSED WITH BORN
Since the latter part of the 18th century,

as past participles of the verb bear.

When the focus is on the offspring
or on something brought forth
as if by birth, born is the standard spelling,
and it occurs only in passive constructions:
