When asked about why he committed such a crime, the psycopath replied with a very amoral attitude.

Daniela: Your use of the vocab seems sound, but it's hard to reply with an attitude;-)

Daniela said...

Veronica, I found this definition of amoral:

Lacking moral sensibility; not caring about right and wrong.

Isn't "caring" or lack of, an attitude?

Pls explain further. Thanks.

Daniela: The problem is more with the use of the verb "reply"; with that verb, someone usually says something. With your answer it would have been better to use the verb "had";-)
