Question 7
Folkways are informal cultural norms related to everyday, casual behaviors (like table manners or greeting styles), not laws (which have punishment) or official government rules.
Folkways guide daily social interactions (e.g., how to greet, share space). They lack strict legal penalties (that's laws) and don't address serious moral wrongdoing (that's mores).
Mores are deeply held norms with moral significance (e.g., norms against theft or harm). They aren't optional/variable (folkways are more casual) or everyday unenforced behaviors (that's folkways).
