You won’t be arrested for violating a folkway, but breaking them usually results in negative sanctions.

你不会因为违反民俗而被捕，但违反民俗通常会导致负面制裁。

Specifically, the strange looks are what are known as negative sanctions, negative social reactions to deviance.

具体来说，奇怪的表情就是所谓的负面制裁，即对越轨行为的负面社会反应。

When mores are broken, you almost always get a negative sanction – and they’re usually more severe than just strange looks.

当习俗被打破时，你几乎总是会受到负面制裁——而且它们通常比奇怪的外表更严厉。

It’s not illegal to violate a folkway, but if you do, there might be ramifications – or what we call negative sanctions.

违反民俗并不违法，但如果你这样做，可能会产生后果——或者我们称之为负面制裁。

This is obvious in the case of something like fugitive slave laws, which applied a formal negative sanction to deviating from the norms of slavery.

这在逃亡奴隶法之类的情况下是显而易见的，该法对偏离奴隶制规范的行为施加正式的负面制裁。

Formal sanctioning of deviance occurs when norms are codified into law, and violation almost always results in negative sanctions from the criminal justice system – the police, the courts, and the prison system.

当规范被编入法律时，就会对越轨行为进行正式制裁，而违反行为几乎总是会导致刑事司法系统（警察、法院和监狱系统）的负面制裁。
