Although similar, the three terms are not interchangeable. Amoral means to be unconcerned with morals or scruples (i.e., to be neither moral nor immoral). It is often misused for the more common immoral—opposite of moral—which means to knowingly go against accepted standards of morality. The final term, unmoral, means to be uninfluenced by or incapable of understanding morality. Animals and objects tend to be unmoral, serial killers and greedy executives immoral, and young children amoral.
