讲求 (jiǎng qiú) — to be particular about; to pay attention to; to stress
Definition
Used when a standard or quality is the focus of attention — to value, insist on, or make a point of (efficiency, freshness, accuracy, etc.). More formal and value-driven than the everyday 注意 ('pay attention to'), which simply notices things.
