worship
/ˈwɜːʃɪp/
When used as a verb, "worship" can be either transitive (meaning it has an object, like "worship a god") or intransitive (meaning it is the action itself, like "they gather to worship"). In a non-religious sense, using this word to describe love for another person often implies that the admiration is too strong or unrealistic. As a noun, "worship" is generally uncountable. You would say "much worship" rather than "many worships."
