词组 | respect |
释义 | respect Respect occurs in a few idiomatic phrases that have been involved in one usage issue or another over the years. For instance, Bierce 1909 objected to respect in the sense "way, matter," which is used in such phrases as in that respect. Such phrases are, of course, perfectly standard: • More representative in this respect was Lord Chesterfield —John Butt, English Literature in the Mid-Eighteenth Century, edited & completed by Geoffrey Carnall, 1979 • In one other respect Johnson proposed to improve upon his predecessors —John Butt, English Literature in the Mid-Eighteenth Century, edited & completed by Geoffrey Carnall, 1979 And Quiller-Couch 1916 objected to in respect of as jargonish. Respect occurs in three such phrases: in respect of, in respect to, and with respect to. For a discussion of these phrases, see in respect of, in respect to, with respect to. |
