Respect always joining queen and English (6)
I believe the answer is:
revere
'respect' is the definition.
(revering is a kind of respecting)
'always joining queen and english' is the wordplay.
'always' becomes 'ever' ('ever' can be a synonym of 'always').
'joining' says to put letters next to each other.
'queen' becomes 'r' (r is abbreviation regina. e.g. in ER ).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'ever' put after 'r' is 'rever'.
'rever'+'e'='REVERE'
(Other definitions for revere that I've seen before include "Hold in high respect" , "Show great respect for" , "Venerate, adore" , "Paul, perhaps" , "Hold in awe" .)
