revere
含义: To regard someone or something with deep respect, admiration, or devotion, often bordering on awe.
Revere is stronger than 'respect' or 'admire' and carries overtones of veneration or near-sacred regard. It is used for historical figures, cultural traditions, institutions, and principles that inspire profound esteem. The adjective 'revered' is extremely common in broadsheet writing: 'the revered institution,' 'a revered figure.' Common collocations include 'widely revered,' 'deeply revered,' and 'revered as.'
