Note
A plural that only some meanings of morality allow. The broad sense, knowing right from wrong and acting on it, is uncountable, so it has no moralities. The plural belongs to codes and principles that can be counted and compared: the moralities of different societies, or of two characters at odds. It also covers morality plays and, archaically, moral lessons or pronouncements.
