覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
disrespects は原形 disrespect の三人称単数現在形で、語末に -s を付け、発音は /ˌdɪsrɪˈspekts/。dis-「否定」＋respect「敬意」と分け、he disrespects colleagues のように「人を粗末に扱う」、disrespects the rules のように「規則を軽視する」という目的語との組合せで覚える。
Disrespects is the third-person singular present form of disrespect: he, she, or it disrespects someone or something. The ending is the regular -s, pronounced /s/ after the final /t/, giving /ˌdɪsrɪˈspekts/. Split the word into dis-, expressing negation, and respect. Remember two common patterns: a person disrespects colleagues by interrupting them, and someone disrespects rules by deliberately ignoring them. The verb describes conduct that shows insufficient regard; it is stronger and more personal than simply disagreeing with an opinion.

disrespects の語源・成り立ち Etymology
disrespect はラテン語 dis-「離れて・否定」+ respectus「振り返って見る、配慮」から来た語です。もとは「相手をよく見て気にかける」が respect で、dis- が付いて「敬意を払わない」の意味になりました。同根語に respect, inspect があります。
Disrespects is the regular third-person singular present form of the verb disrespect. Disrespect combines the negative or reversing prefix dis- with respect. Respect came through Latin respectus, from respicere, literally “to look back at” and figuratively “to consider” or “regard.” Disrespect consequently expresses a lack of due regard. Although disrespect was long familiar as a noun, its use as a verb is now well established in English.
