From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Respect, also called esteem, is a positive feeling or action shown towards someone or something considered important or held in high esteem or regard. It conveys a sense of admiration for good or valuable qualities. It is also the process of honoring someone by exhibiting care, concern, or consideration for their needs or feelings.[1][2]

Some people may earn the respect of individuals by assisting others or by playing important social roles. In many cultures, individuals are considered to be worthy of respect until they prove otherwise. Courtesies that show respect may include simple words and phrases like «Thank you» in the West or «Namaste» in the Indian subcontinent, or simple physical signs like a slight bow, a smile, direct eye contact, or a simple handshake; however, those acts may have very different interpretations, depending on the cultural context.

Signs and other ways of showing respect[edit]

Language[edit]

Respect is a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities and achievements.

An honorific is a word or expression (often a pronoun) that shows respect when used in addressing or referring to a person.

Typically honorifics are used for second and third persons; use for first person is less common. Some languages have anti-honorific first person forms (like «your most humble servant» or «this unworthy person») whose effect is to enhance the relative honor accorded a second or third person.

For instance, it is disrespectful not to use polite language and honorifics when speaking in Japanese with someone having a higher social status. The Japanese honorific «san» can be used when English is spoken.[3]

In China, it is considered rude to call someone by their first name unless the person is known for a long period of time. In work-related situations, people address each other by their title. At home, people often refer to each other by nicknames or terms of kinship.[4] In Chinese culture, individuals often address their friends as juniors and seniors even if they are just a few months younger or older. When the Chinese ask for someone’s age, they often do so to know how to address the person.[4]

Physical gestures[edit]

A wife touching the feet of her husband

In Islamic cultures around the world, there are many ways to show respect to people. For example, it is recommended to kiss the hands of parents, grandparents and teachers. Also, it is narrated in the sayings of Muhammad that if a person looks at the faces of parents and teachers with a smile, he or she will definitely be rewarded by Allah with success and happiness.[citation needed]

In India, it is customary that, out of respect, when a person’s foot accidentally touches a book or any written material (considered to be a manifestations of Saraswati, the goddess of knowledge) or another person’s leg, it will be followed by an apology in the form of a single hand gesture (Pranāma) with the right hand, where the offending person first touches the object with the finger tips and then the forehead and/or chest. This also counts for money, which is considered to be a manifestation of the goddess of wealth Lakshmi.[5] Pranāma, or the touching of feet in Indian culture is a sign of respect. For instance, when a child is greeting his or her grandparent, they typically will touch their hands to their grandparents’ feet. In Indian culture, it is believed that the feet are a source of power and love.[6]

In many African/West Indian descent communities and some non-African/West Indian descent communities, respect can be signified by the touching of fists.[citation needed]

Many gestures or physical acts that are common in the West can be considered disrespectful in Japan. For instance, one should not point directly at someone.[7] When greeting someone or thanking them, it may be insulting if the person of lower status does not bow lower than the person with higher status. The duration and level of the bow depends on many factors such as age and status.[8] Some signs of physical respect apply to women only. If a woman does not wear cosmetics or a brassiere, it is possible that she will be considered unprofessional or others may think she does not care about the situation.

Respect as a virtue[edit]

Respect for others is a variety of virtue or character strength. The philosopher Immanuel Kant made the virtue of respect the core of his Categorical Imperative:

So act that you treat humanity… always at the same time as an end, never merely as a means.[9]

China[edit]

Chinese culture[edit]

Unlike Japanese culture, it is not necessary in Chinese culture to bow to one another as a greeting or parting gesture. Bowing is generally reserved as a sign of respect for elders and ancestors. When bowing, they place the fist of the right hand in the palm of their left at stomach level. The deeper the bow, the more respect they are showing.

In Chinese culture, there is not much participation in physical contact, especially when doing business because this can be seen as too casual, thus disrespectful. It is considered rude to slap, pat, or put one’s arm around the shoulders of another.[10] However, affection in same-sex friendships in East Asia is much more pronounced than in the West. Same-sex friends will often be seen with their arms around one another, holding hands, and other signs of physical affection.[11]

It is uncommon to see very many hand gestures being used in Chinese culture because this is often considered to be excessive.[4] The Chinese sometimes do not smile or exchange greetings with strangers. Smiling or being friendly to someone you do not know can be considered rude and too familiar. It is also common to see Chinese women covering their mouths when they laugh. Traditionally, a woman who laughed too loudly was considered to be uncouth and ill-bred.[4]

Traditionally, there was not much hand-shaking in Chinese culture. However, this gesture is now widely practiced among men, especially when greeting Westerners or other foreigners. Many Westerners may find Chinese handshakes to be too long or too weak, but this is because a weaker handshake is a gesture of humility and respect.[4]

Kowtowing, or kneeling and bowing so deeply that one’s forehead is touching the floor, is practiced during worship at temples. Kowtowing is a powerful gesture reserved mainly for honoring the dead or offering deep respect at a temple.[4]

Many codes of behavior revolve around young people showing respect to older people. Filial piety is a major example of a virtue of having respect for their ancestors, family and elders. Like in many cultures, younger Chinese individuals are expected to defer to older people, let them speak first, sit down after them and not contradict them. Sometimes when an older person enters a room, everyone stands. People are often introduced from oldest to youngest. Often, younger people will go out of their way to open doors for their elders and not cross their legs in front of them. The older you are the more respect you are expected to be treated with.[4]

Respect as a cultural value[edit]

Indigenous American culture[edit]

In many indigenous American societies, respect serves as an important concept valued in indigenous American culture. In addition to esteem or deference, respect is viewed as a moral value that teaches indigenous individuals about their culture. This moral value is treated as a process that influences participation in the community and also helps individuals develop and become integrated into their culture’s community. The value of respect is taught during childhood because the process of indigenous children participating in and learning about their community is an important aspect of the culture.[12]

Respect as a form of behavior and participation is especially important in childhood as it serves as a basis of how children must conduct themselves in their community. Children engage in mature activities such as cooking for the family, cleaning and sweeping the house, caring for infant peers, and crop work. Indigenous children learn to view their participation in these activities as a representation of respect. Through this manner of participation in activities of respect, children not only learn about culture but also practice it as well.[13][need quotation to verify]

First recorded in 1300–50; Middle English noun from Old French or directly from Latin respectus “action of looking back, consideration, regard,” equivalent to respec-, variant stem of respicere “to look back” (re- “back” + specere “to look”) + -tus suffix of verbal action; verb from Latin respectus, past participle of respicere; see re-

historical usage of respect

In Middle English, the more common meanings of the noun respect ( respect, respecte ) are “relation, relationship, regard, consideration” (still current meanings), present in Old French respect and Latin respectus, literally, “the act of looking back.”
The meaning “esteem for a person, thing, or quality” first appeared in 1526; the corresponding verb meaning “to hold in esteem” is first recorded in 1583. The prepositional phrase with respect to “referring to; concerning” dates to the mid-16th century. The plural noun respects “a formal expression or gesture of greeting, esteem, or friendship” dates to the first half of the 17th century; the phrase to pay one’s respects “to make a visit in order to welcome, greet, etc., or to express one’s sympathy, especially after a death” dates to the middle of the 17th century.

The Meaning of the Word Respect in MOBA Games

Respect for opponents when playing Mobile Legends

As the name implies, Respect deliberately prohibits a MOBA heroes so that one of his opponents does not use the character.

The reason for this is that the team thought that the player and character combination would be a powerful punch to have in the game. 

This character may be in Meta but not. But since the player is so skilled and the team he’s defending can take a strong approach using this character, you don’t want to take any chances and end up with one of those tires. In short, this word is the use of tires as a sign of respect (or fear) so that the hero does not fall on the opponent. 

This respect can be due to the player, and the strategy of one game, or two at the same time. There are many examples of premium tires in MOBA games.

In Mobile Legends, for example, Estes is one of the heroes that made Blacklist International the winner of the M3 World Championship.

Only Blacklist seems to be able to use this hero well. Until the finals in the last two matches of the tournament, this hero became the first player to be banned from entering the opposing team. When in a game involving other teams, this hero almost always appears sequentially.

Respect had a big impact on the draw as teams were forced to use tires for certain characters. If the character turns out to be unique or non-meta, it means that you have to leave the meta character and your opponent can take it.

Although the opposing team can have strategies that are as effective as using other characters in general. This places the team writer in a difficult position because they have to know and be able to choose the strategy that their team is ready to face.

Treating people in a positive manner that acknowledges them for who they are and/or what they are doing. Being treated or treating an individual in a dignified manner.

Respect is earned and is never just given. BUT, you must give respect to receive respect. Meaning when you interact with an individual you treat them with dignity and in a respectful manner as this shows your character as a person. And the respect will be reciprocated. You must always behave in a respectful manner as this reflects on you, your character, integrity and values of who you are as a person.

No one owes you respect until you have earned it, so there is no such thing as I will give it after they give it to me first. That attitude is a disrespectful action to anyone you interact with as it insinuates that you do not trust them to act accordingly, and implies that they «owe» you respect before you will give it. That will cause people to LOSE respect for you or never gain it in the first place. When you first meet someone, everyone is given the benefit of the doubt that they are a respectable individual. Questioning their integrity(respect) before you have even met them and «expecting» respect to be given without giving it yourself is insulting and condescending to that person and is judging them in a negative light when you know absolutely nothing about them.

Thus,

To get respect, you must give it. So respectful behavior should just be part of how you act as a person 100% of the time.

A word describing the mutual relations between two people. This is something that needs to be cultivated on a person-to-person basis; a mutual relation cultivated through continuous fair and equitable exchanges of kind and politeful interactions, as well as having an understanding and consideration for each other as having the same basic human dignity. This cannot be obtained simply through age, status, experience, knowledge; it must be mutually crafted.

Respect is not earned nor given through one man’s acts, but through mutual interactions of good will exchanges.

Noun: A value that once thrived but has nearly been eradicated in the name of free speech and expressing one’s self. Back when respect ran rampant people would keep their mouths shut if they didn’t have something intelligent to say but sadly today most people choose to express their “beliefs” even when they don’t have anything of value to say. Often disrespectful people make up for the lack of intelligence by resorting to juvenile statements such as “he/she sucks”, “he/she’s a tool” or what is ironically the all time favorite of the disrespectful, “He/she/you are an idiot”. The term “idiot” is often also used by the disrespectful to label anyone who disagrees with them especially if that person can actually speak intelligently on the subject or person being discussed.

Although John disliked the governor he figured it best to show some respect and keep his opinion to himself as he had nothing constructive to say about the man. Emma on the other hand chose to express her beliefs and tweeted that the governor sucked.

Respect is what nowadays kids have a lack of.WHO CARES ??Respect…Respect is a very strong word.But you can also use it with sweetness

For example:

1. Imagine a teacher saying to one of her student «why don’t you have some respect» while she is right .Think about the kid.How he/she feels ?He will learn one day to respect but that was on example for respect’s strong meaning

2. Image your friend does you a big favour.Firstly you thank him saying «I respect you» or just «respect» by itself is enough .Then image that the same friend means a lot to you and that you cannot thank him because he is away and you can’t go with him .Is the best way to thank him trying non stop (while being rejected) to submit a meaning for Respect dedicated to him?

See how different the meaning of the word can change.If only people used it’s sweet plus lovely meaning than the strict one

But in the end who cares it won’t even get submitted.

IHeartYouBro xoxo…

Get the Respect mug.
