How to use "Disrespect" in context?
In the English language, there is no one specific term for the various degrees of disrespect that can be shown to someone. Broadly speaking, there are three main concepts that are often used interchangeably to refer to different types of disrespect: lack of courtesy, rudeness, and bluntness.
Lack of Courtesy
One of the most basic ways to show disrespect is to behave in a way that is not polite, considerate, or respectful. This can involve everything from ignoring a person entirely to speaking over them or acting impertinent or offensively.
