moralità

morality

noun moh-rah-lee-TAH Rare

Origin: From Latin moralitas ('character, manner').

moral standards

Usage Note

Moralità ends in an accented -à, which means its plural is identical to the singular — la moralità / le moralità — an invariable plural. It refers both to an individual's moral character (la moralità di una persona) and to the ethical quality of an act or system. Do not confuse with morale (masculine, il morale, meaning 'morale/mood' or feminine, la morale, meaning 'moral of a story').

Examples

"La sua moralità è fuori discussione."

Natural Translation
