Memory Tip
记忆:respect 做动词还可表示'涉及',如 'respecting this matter' 意为'关于此事'。别只想到'尊敬',联想'牵扯'。
Context & Register
语域:formal 常见场景:法律文书、正式公文、学术写作、正式信函 这个动词义项表示“涉及”或“与……有关”,比较正式,多用于法律、公文等正式书面语,日常口语中较少出现。使用时注意它常以“respecting”或“as respects”等形式出现。
Grammar Note

Pronunciation & Spelling
expect, inspect, reflect and correct rhyme with respect: they all have the stressed vowel /ɛ/ followed by /kt/. Aspect and prospect are spelling lookalikes: they stress the first syllable (/ˈæspɛkt/, /ˈprɑːspɛkt/), so they do not rhyme with respect.
