英文释义
名词 n.
-
A set of moral norms or customs derived from generally accepted practices rather than written laws.
— All of us seem to need some totalistic relationships in our lives. But to decry the fact that we cannot have only such relationships is nonsense. And to prefer a society in which the individual has holistic relationships with a few, rather than modular relationships with many, is to wish for a return to the imprisonment of the past — a past when individuals may have been more tightly bound to one another, but when they were also more tightly regimented by social conventions, sexual mores, political and religious restrictions.
- plural of more
动词 v.
- third-person singular simple present indicative of more
