         DefinitionShort: a pattern of behavior more or less fixed by tradition and generally sanctioned by the society

         Glosses: ['custom', 'habit']

         Comments: In a number of languages there is no noun for ‘custom’ or ‘habit,’ but the same meaning is communicated by verbal aspects or adverbial phrases indicating habitual action. For example, in the case of {S:04301904000030} one may translate in some languages ‘as is the way in which Jews always bury people,’ and for {S:04601101600018} one may translate ‘this is not what we constantly do.’
