admirable

Ihre Fähigkeit, auch in stressigen Situationen ruhig zu bleiben, ist wirklich bewundernswert.
Her ability to stay calm even in stressful situations is truly admirable.
The word consists of the verb 'bewundern' (to admire) and the ending '-wert' (worth). So it literally means that something is 'worth' being admired.
Sein Engagement für das Projekt ist wirklich bewundernswert.
His commitment to the project is truly admirable.
'Bewundernswert' (admirable) is often used in the structure 'Es ist bewundernswert, ... zu ...' (It is admirable to ...) or 'Es ist bewundernswert, wie/dass ...' (It is admirable how/that ...) to describe an action or ability.
Es ist bewundernswert, mit wie viel Geduld sie den Kindern alles erklärt.
It is admirable how patiently she explains everything to the children.
The adjective often describes abstract nouns that express a positive quality or action. Typical examples are 'bewundernswerter Mut' (admirable courage), 'eine bewundernswerte Leistung' (an admirable achievement), or 'bewundernswerte Geduld' (admirable patience).
Sie hat die Prüfung mit bewundernswerter Ruhe gemeistert.
She mastered the exam with admirable calm.
