commendatory
This term carries a formal, official tone, typically appearing in professional, academic, or legal contexts. It describes a specific function of a document or statement intended to validate a person's character or achievements, rather than just expressing a casual feeling of liking. It is most frequently paired with nouns like letters, remarks, or reports.
Because it describes the purpose of an action or object, it differs from "commendable," which describes the quality of the action itself. While a "commendable effort" is one worthy of praise, a "commendatory letter" is the instrument used to deliver that praise.
