Definition
注重 (zhùzhòng) means to attach importance to something and treat it as a priority — it's about what you value or focus on in your actions or attitude. It's stronger than 注意 (zhùyì 'pay attention to, notice'), which just means being aware or careful, and overlaps with 强调 (qiángdiào 'emphasize') but 注重 is about habitual priority while 强调 is about stating or stressing a point.
