钦佩

• 拼音: qīn pèi
• 汉字拆解: 钦 = 金 + 欠 (metal + yawning — originally relating to imperial reverence; extended to deep admiration); 佩 = 亻+ 凡 + 巾 (a person wearing ornaments — to wear, to admire)

含义

To admire; to esteem deeply; to feel sincere respect and admiration for someone's qualities or achievements.

A formal expression of admiration, stronger and more elevated than 佩服 (to admire/be impressed by). Used in written language, formal speeches, and sincere personal praise.
