How to use "Duty" in context?
Duty is a word that comes up a lot in conversation and can have a few different meanings. In general, it can refer to an obligation or responsibility you have, whether you're aware of it or not. This can be something as simple as picking up your dog after she's had an accident on the sidewalk, or standing up during a lecture to ask a question. Sometimes, it can be more complex, such as serving in the military or taking care of a sick relative. Regardless of its scope, duty is something we feel we have to do no matter what.
