Regard, respect (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

esteem

I believe this is a double definition.

'regard' is the first definition.
(I know that regard can be written as esteem)

'respect' is the second definition.
(I know that respect can be written as esteem)

(Other definitions for esteem that I've seen before include "credit" , "Hold in high regard and respect" , "Set a high value on" , "High opinion, great respect" , "Venerate" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
