Subject: the word "more" in plural gen. Hello,How would you translate the following sentence with the word "mores". The text is about moral values, about religion and ethics.: "Thou shalt not commit adultery" is a moral absolute. It does not depend on your feelings, or social mores or consequences. THANK YOU VERY MUCH |
| традиции, общепринятые нормы |

it has nothing to do with "more" in plural mores=the customs and conventions embodying the fundamental values of a group or society |
| общественные нравы |
| как ещё Цицерон возмущался: "O tempora, o mores!" :-) |
