folkway
This term is primarily used in sociology and anthropology to describe the routine, everyday habits of a group. It carries a neutral to positive connotation, focusing on the organic development of social customs rather than imposed laws. While a folkway governs common courtesy and social etiquette, it differs from a "more" (pronounced mor-ay), which represents a more serious moral requirement.
Violating a folkway typically results in mild social disapproval or awkwardness rather than severe punishment or legal action. For example, wearing a tuxedo to a casual beach party is a breach of folkways, whereas committing a crime is a breach of laws.
