For example, some of the basic 'things not to do' (sorry the correct word eludes me at the moment) is no harsh speech, dont steal, no divissive talk, do not kill, etc
There are 5 lay precepts as follows:


1. I undertake the precept to refrain from destroying living creatures.

2. I undertake the precept to refrain from taking that which is not given.

3. I undertake the precept to refrain from sexual misconduct.

4. I undertake the precept to refrain from incorrect speech.

5. I undertake the precept to refrain from intoxicating drinks and drugs which lead to carelessness.
