Man″age (?), n. [[F. manège, It. maneggio, fr. maneggiare to manage, fr. L. manushand. Perhaps somewhat influenced by F. ménage housekeeping, OF. mesnage, akin to E. mansion. See Manual, and cf. Manege.]] The handling or government of anything, but esp. of a horse; management; administration. See Manege. Young men, in the conduct and manage of actions, embrace more than they can hold. Bacon. Down, down I come; like glistering Phaëthon Wanting the manage of unruly jades. Shak. The unlucky manage of this fatal brawl. Shak. ☞ This word, in its limited sense of management of a horse, has been displaced by manege; in its more general meaning, by management.
