将“morality”分解为“moral”和“-ity”。首先记住“moral”表示道德、品行,然后想象“-ity”是一个表示性质或状态的词缀。将这两个部分结合起来,想象道德如同一种持续存在并影响人的行为和品行的状态,这样可以帮助记忆“morality”表示道德或道德标准。

morality (n.)
late 14c., "moral qualities," from Old 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 (see moral (adj.)). Meaning "goodness" 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]
