Moral is used especially to talk about the behaviour and standards of individual people in their daily lives. It is particularly concerned with people's duties and feelings: collocates include duty, obligation, imperative, sense, indignation, outrage, panic and courage. Ethical is usually used to talk about the principles and practices of people in a particular profession or area of work, or of society generally. It can sound more formal and less forceful than moral, and is concerned with issues rather than duties or feelings: collocates include guideline, criterion and proposition. * moral尤指个人在日常生活中的行为和道德水准，尤与人的责任和情感相关，搭配词有duty、obligation、imperative、sense、indignation、outrage、panic和courage。ethical通常指特定行业或工作领域内的人或者整个社会所奉行的原则和通例，听起来较moral正式，但不及moral有力，较多与议题而非责任或情感相关，搭配词有guideline、criterion和proposition。
