What's the difference between muscle and thew?

Muscle


Definition:

  • (n.) An organ which, by its contraction, produces motion.
  • (n.) The contractile tissue of which muscles are largely made up.
  • (n.) Muscular strength or development; as, to show one's muscle by lifting a heavy weight.
  • (n.) See Mussel.

Thew


Definition:

  • (n.) Manner; custom; habit; form of behavior; qualities of mind; disposition; specifically, good qualities; virtues.
  • (n.) Muscle or strength; nerve; brawn; sinew.
