Definition
推崇 means to hold someone or something in high esteem, often based on their achievements, ideas, or qualities. It is more about public respect and admiration than 崇拜 (chóng bài), which implies worship or adoration, and is less personal than 钦佩 (qīn pèi), which focuses on deep admiration for a person's character.
