For Manufacture, one should expect not manna- but handu-, thus handu-gawaurki or 
handu-gawaurkeins (the abstract 'manufacture'), handu-gawaurkjan (the verb, to 
manufacture).

For Corporation, let us follow the sense of 'body-ment' with *leikinassus, perhaps better 
as *in-ga- or just *ga-leikinassus.
