Merriam-Webster Dictionary word of the year 2018
respect
When Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul, died on August 16th,
the title of one of her most enduring hits
was ubiquitous in tributes to her, and respect became a top lookup.
The world had known Franklin's song for 50 years
—in which time it has become an anthem for both the civil rights and feminist movements
—but the word respect has been part of the English language
since the 14th century. It comes from the Latin respectus,
which literally means "the act of looking back."
It's an apt etymology for a word that served as
a focal pointof a global appreciation
for the decades of musicAretha Franklin had given the world.
