Usage Note
Respecto is almost always used in the phrase con respecto a or respecto a/de meaning 'with regard to, regarding'. It is not a synonym of respeto (respect, esteem), which is a different word — confusing the two is a common learner error. Al respecto means 'on the matter, in that regard'.
Examples
"Tengo dudas con respecto a esa decisión."
Natural Translation
I have doubts regarding that decision.
