It often appears as is revered: “She is revered as the founder of the hospital.” It was borrowed from French révérer, and further back from Latin revereor, built from re- plus vereor, “to fear” or “to stand in awe” — so the old heart of the word is closer to awe than to ordinary liking.
It often appears as is revered它常常以is revered的形式出現 "She is revered as the founder of the hospital.""She is revered as the founder of the hospital."(她被尊崇為這間醫院的創辦人) It was borrowed from French révérer這個字是從法文révérer借來的 and further back from Latin revereor再往前追溯自拉丁文revereor built from re- plus vereor由re-加上vereor組成 "to fear" or "to stand in awe"(「害怕」或「心懷敬畏」) so the old heart of the word is closer to awe than to ordinary liking所以這個字原本的核心比較接近敬畏,而不是普通的喜歡
