Question

please help

Answer 1

How does RESPECT look and sound?
Well, when you give respect you get respect.

Respect is sometimes loosely used as a synonym for politeness or manners, though these are behaviours, whereas respect is an attitude. Intercultural differences in behaviours, self-perception and outward appearance may result in the unintentional appearance of disrespect.

Respect is the esteem for or a sense of the worth or excellence of a person, a personal quality or ability, or something considered as a manifestation of a personal quality or ability: I have great respect for her judgment.

Respect is an attitude of acknowledging the feelings and interests of another party in a relationship, and of treating as consequential for the self the helping or harming of the other. Though most commonly referring to interpersonal relationships, it can be used between animals, groups and institutions including countries. Respect does not necessarily imply deference, but a respectful attitude rules out unconsidered selfish behaviour. The concept of respect predates, and does not rely on, the existence of the concept of rights.

Answer 2

Respect neither looks like nor sounds like anything tangible. It is earned by both word and deed on your part. Some people won't return respect, but that is because they selfishly keep all their good feelings about others to themselves. You earn respect in many ways. Being honest and truthfull in your relations with others will earn you respect. A good deed performed without any expectation of reward earns you respect. The way you treat others earns you respect.

Answer 3

Respect means looking up to someone and having consideration for this person's character. It means paying homage to a titled individual, such as a statesman or clergyman. It means not invading someone's privacy or space.

Respect looks like saluting the American flag, opening a door for a lady, standing when being introduced to an older person.

It sounds like using titles such as sir, madame or ma'am, Your Honor, Your Majesty, Reverand, Your Lordship, etc., paying attention in class, and keeping your mouth shut in church or at the movies.
