Default Re: duty; work;job;function;task

It is your duty to pray every day. Something that is a moral obligation.

Your work is how you earn your living. The means by which you produce something.

My job is looking after the dogs. A piece of work; by extension your post of empoyment.

My function in the company has yet to be decided. The purpose for which something exists, a role.

What task have you been set by the teacher? A definite piece of work (like writing an essay).
