Etymology
'morally' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'moralis,' where 'mores' meant 'customs or manners.' 'Aligned' comes from Old French 'aligner,' meaning 'to line up.'
'morally' changed from the Latin word 'moralis' and eventually became the modern English word 'moral.' 'Aligned' evolved from the Old French 'aligner' to the modern English 'align.'
Initially, 'morally' meant 'pertaining to manners,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'pertaining to principles of right and wrong.'
