admiration

[U] Không đếm được

This term describes a warm, positive emotional response triggered by recognizing excellence, virtue, or talent in another. It is a quiet, steady form of appreciation that often creates a psychological distance between the admirer and the admired, placing the subject on a pedestal of merit. While respect is a foundational requirement for social order and can be given to anyone who follows the rules, admiration is a more intense, elective emotion. It is typically reserved for those who exhibit extraordinary qualities or achieve things the observer finds inspiring or aspirational.

Used to describe the general feeling of respect, such as having great admiration for a mentor.
