Usage Notes

"崇敬" is often used to express respect towards people who have admirable qualities or have made significant contributions, such as teachers, heroes, or ancestors. It carries a stronger emotional weight than simply "尊敬" (to respect). Avoid using it casually for everyday respect; it suits formal or solemn contexts.
