I think it’s new word for us. Actually, we saw this word many time in our lesson but we didn’t point it.
Thank you for emphasize us.

Glad you found it useful Nickky – why don’t you post other examples where you can use this word in a sentence? How about this example: John has no sense of morality – he does not know the difference between wrong and right.
