He is a very mannerful person

Are the given sentences correct?

1: He is a very mannerful person.
2: He is a mannerless person.

#2 is fine. #1 is constructed correctly, but I'm not sure if "mannerful" is actually a recognised word. It seems plausible but I can't find it in any dictionaries.

  • #2 is fine.

  • It seems plausible but I can't find it in any dictionaries.
  • The words usually used are "well-mannered"/"mannerly" (which mean pretty much the same thing) and "mannered" (which is slightly different, having connotations of mannerism and affectation).
  • I'm not sure exactly which of these meanings "mannerful" ought to have.

i could not find the word "mannerful" in any dictionaries either.
In some places, i type it in the search bar and the sign appears, that red fuzzy line under the word, noting that i misspelled a word or something.
I hope it is a word because I used it in my essay
