Etymology
The phrase "in other respects" combines the preposition 'in,' the adjective 'other,' and the plural noun 'respects,' which historically means aspects or regards. It evolved from formal English usage where 'respect' referred to a way of considering something, and the phrase collectively means 'in other regards or aspects.'
