Best Answer

"Mores" in the societical sense of the word means "standards, values, customs". These are underlyingnorms thatform the basis for expectedbehavior for a given culture, which also means they can vary widely around the world. For instance, in the United States a societal more is to be approachable; this gives rise to the commonly accepted behavior of requesting to be addressed by one's first name when first meeting someone new. However, in Asia the more is to be respectful, which gives rise to the commonly accepted behavior of addressing others by title and last name even after working with them for years.
