R.E.S.P.E.C.T. (solution)
by Emily Morgan and Jit Hin Tan
Each set of letters can be anagrammed into single words by doubling one of the given letters:
| Given | Doubled Letter | Anagram |
| ABMNOT | A | BOATMAN |
| AENORTY | T | ATTORNEY |
| BCEKLORSTU | B | BLOCKBUSTER |
| BFLU | F | BLUFF |
| CDEILNOTU | E | NUCLEOTIDE |
| CIK | K | KICK |
| GIOPS | S | GOSSIP |
| ABCEKNO | B | BACKBONE |
| ABLMNOR | A | ABNORMAL |
| ACEILMPR | I | EMPIRICAL |
| ACEILTUV | T | CULTIVATE |
| HINOPSY | S | HYPNOSIS |
| ACDEIKLNST | C | CANDLESTICK |
| ACDEMY | A | ACADEMY |
| ACEMZ | E | ECZEMA |
| ACHIMNST | I | MACHINIST |
| DEIO | D | DIODE |
| GLNOTU | T | GLUTTON |
| ABCEGILORTY | O | BACTERIOLOGY |
| ABEINORTX | T | EXORBITANT |
| ACRTUY | A | ACTUARY |
| AGHTUY | H | HAUGHTY |
| CDEIMNOPU | M | COMPENDIUM |
| ACDILMOPT | I | DIPLOMATIC |
| ACHILP | L | PHALLIC |
| BCEKUY | E | BUCKEYE |
| MNOTU | T | MUTTON |
The doubled letters of each group can then be anagrammed into single words by tripling one of the letters:
| Doubled Letters from before | Tripled Letter | Anagram |
| ABEFKST / ATBFEKS | E | BEEFSTEAK |
| ABIST / BAITS | S | BASSIST |
| ACDEIT / CAEIDT | D | ADDICTED |
| AHMOT / OTAHM | M | MAMMOTH |
| EILT / ILET | T | TITTLE |
The tripled letters can finally be anagrammed into one single word by quadrupling one of the letters: ESDMT – quadruple E – which yields the answer, ESTEEMED.
Note: The groupings were arranged by alphabetical order of the letter banks generated by the duplicated letters of each group, as if they were arranged alphabetically within each group.
The title was meant to clue anagramming (by emphasizing the individual letters) and the repeat letter (repeated E), as well as hint at the solution (respect / esteemed).
