1. 1

    If something is admirable, it has good qualities that make you respect it — honesty, courage, hard work, patience, a generous aim. You admire it. The word is a little formal, and though actually it can feel slightly cool: “That’s an admirable goal” often means “I respect it” without saying “I want that too.” It praises the quality, not how something is. A boring plan can still be admirable if it is careful and fair. People, acts, and aims can all be admirable; a pizza usually cannot, unless you are joking.

    令人欽佩的、值得佩服的(偏正式;敬重多過「好棒」)
