短释义:
You’ll notice the word moral is in morality. And you might remember reading fairy tales that ended with the phrase, “The moral of the story is…” That’s because stories for children are often intended to instruct kids as to what the good or right decision is in a situation. For example, Cinderella teaches kids that if their foot fits the glass slipper, they can end up marrying a prince. How’s that for morality?
道德是对对错的关注。你的道德感会阻止你在学校考试、纳税或配偶身上作弊。

词源:
morality (n.)late 14c., moralite, “moral qualities, virtuous conduct or thought,” from Old French moralite (Modern French moralité) “moral (of a story); moral instruction; morals, moral character” (13c.) and directly from Late Latin moralitatem (nominative moralitas) “manner, character,” from Latin moralis “of manners or morals; moral” (see moral (adj.)). Meaning “doctrine or system of ethical duties” is from mid-15c. Meaning “goodness, characteristic of being moral, virtuousness” is attested from 1590s.
Where there is no free agency, there can be no morality. Where there is no temptation, there can be little claim to virtue. Where the routine is rigorously proscribed by law, the law, and not the man, must have the credit of the conduct. [William H. Prescott, “History of the Conquest of Peru,” 1847]

道德(n.)14世纪末,moralite,“道德品质、美德行为或思想”,源自古法语moralite(现代法语moralité)“道德(故事的);道德指导;道德,道德品质”(13c.)直接源自后期拉丁语moralitatem (主格moralitas)“方式,性格”,源自拉丁语moralis“礼仪或道德;道德”(参见moral (adj.))。 “道德义务的学说或体系”的含义是从 15 世纪中期开始的。从1590年代起,“善良、道德特征、美德”的含义就得到了证实。没有自由机构,就不可能有道德。没有诱惑,就不可能有美德。当惯例受到法律严格禁止时,该行为的信誉必须是法律而不是人。 [William H. Prescott,《征服秘鲁的历史》,1847 年] 相关条目及更多
